I can't get online with Beup. Is it because I'm using the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector? If so, are there any homebrew applications that work with it?

Thank you for your time.

The reason it doesn't work is that the Wifi connector uses Ninty's proprietary protocol, which the homebrew coder's haven't gotten around to reverse-engineering yet. If you want to use it with homebrew, you'll need to follow the instructions elsewhere for using it as a standard Wifi access point.

I believe the instructions mr_jrt is referring to actually only work if you're running Linux.  There is currently no way to turn it into an access point in Windows.

Really? I was under the impression that SoftAP is the Win32 version of the hack.
