Okay, this Wi-fi stuff is way too complicated. I can't figure out how to get it to work.

I want to trade using the GTS. However, when I try to connect, it says there is no access point within range.

A bit of Googling tells me I need to set the Wi-fi options at the title screen. Okay, no problem, I go to search for an access point. It searches, and the only thing I find is called "Whats up Ian" and it's locked. (Ian is my little brother; I assume it's his cell phone.)

A bit of more Googling tells me I need to get a Wi-fi adaptor. Okay, no problem, I go and buy one. I stick it in my USB port (it's lit up, so I'm assuming that means it's connected). I turn on my game, try to connect. Failure. Go back to the title screen, search for an access point. Nothing but that damned "What's up Ian."

I'm sure I must be doing something wrong, but I have no idea. Any further Googling just brings up the previous solutions.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Did you install the soft ware that came with the usb? if so are you running XP or Vista because if you are running vista you may need to update the soft ware.
 
Yeah, I installed it, and I'm running XP.
