K, So, my router, which is new, seems to hate my DS with a passion, Whenever I connect It will go only halfway.

Example:
Pokemon Diamond
When in WiFi, (Pkmn Centre Basement) I can connect to the menu, view online friends, and such, but as soon as I (or they) decide to initiate some sort of direct contact (trade, battle) It, for lack of a better word, craps out.

Router: DLink WBR 2310

For the sake of things, my router uses 192.168.0.1, with my DS assigned to 192.168.0.101.

Any advice, I can't figure this out... :P

Hmmm... interesting problem... I've experienced this at hotspots, but only from far distances...

I think there's a site which can indicate which routers work or not, have you looked at that? Sorry I can't get the link, I forgot where it was, but I'm sure that there is a site like that...

Alternatively, buy the USB!

No. It is supposed to work. At least according to Nintendo.
And, I do actually have the adapter. Except, Internet Connection Sharing doesn't want to work for me...

Did you resolve it yet One_eye?

Yes, and no.

My final assessment (with slight outside help) Is the 802.11b/g setting.

My router lacks 802.11b.

So, does that mean it can or cannot connect to wifi?

I can connect, but the instant I connect with a friend, it disconnects.

I'm not sure about 802.11b/g. I was hoping you knew.

Yeah. Never saw a point in it.
