However it doesn’t support any USB modem (no USB port) and if you don’t have any access point within range it would make sense to use an ad hoc wifi network for the purpose.

I am currently on a fairly remote location but still within 3G/UMTS coverage so using the laptop and it’s 3G modem as a mean to go on-line would make a lot of sense. However, as I read it this is not doable.

It seems Nintendo had a special plug for this

Very descriptive question similar to mine

Cannot get it to work

More of the same (with a very techy solution for allowing downloading homebrew stuff via Wireless as a bonus).

A product that target the same segment that Nntendo themselves seemingly left is the WiFi Access Point Adapter from Datel/Codejunkies here

Any hint on how to make the normal WiFi connection an access point that the Nintendo DS can accept for internet access, please send a comment, mail or mess!
