No better with no firewall....I have a NAT with firewall, but I've allowed port 8888 UDP connections to go through it. I'll play around with some settings and let you know what I find.

 

**Edit - Still no good, I'm looking at a 2 - 3 second delay between pushing B and having the zoomed view move. Can anyone think of anything that would be giving me this? I also noticed that the mouse doesn't go where I'm touching on the screen... I use the small view to get in the general area of what I want to do, then switch to Zoomed view to be a bit more precise, but the mouse seems wayyy off when its in zoomed view!

 

**Re-Edit - After a bit of playing around, I have also found out that if I'm more than 5m away from the pc, there is n ocommunication between the routeer and DS. I'll try Pointy Remote and see if I have the same results with that.

 

....Yeah. Pointy Remote sucks.

Wow, never heard of some of those problems before. I hope you know you can change the speed of the screen updates in the menu by pressing start (really just sounds like you have a bad connection though). Other than that, custom mouse cursors are known to be about 10 pixels off, but no one's ever told me about it being way off.

im trying to use this with an M3-sd. i download, put it on, and run it but the visuals are very corrupted and the auto connect doesnt work. i have my online settings correct so that isnt the problem. ive also tried downloading the file multiple times but the visuals are still very corrupted, any ideas?

 

or can you host the file on another site maybe? (the attached files link just opens up a page of garbage text....)

The bottom link doesn't work but you can use the link toward the top, just above Mirror Attached.

I think i have the same problem as you joshr915, with an m3sd, but auto connect work for me :-/ sintax, did you mean the auto-screenshots of the DS on the pc? they are fine, but they are only of the top-screen, or not?

i made a little picture to show the nice button-screen on the DS o_O

 

edid: bug fixed :P

Hi there.

 

First, I want to say that this is an excellent program, one which I use all the time (I like to be able to keep tabs on on what's going on with the computer from various other places in the house). I kept the WEP off for a while so I could use it, until this new implementation which works very well.

 

One thing I had hoped would be changed in this version, however, wasn't, and so I figured I'd ask if it would be possible for the next version, if there is one.

 

While it's great to be able to easily focus on any part of the screen, enlarging it to the top screen, it can be hard to get the mouse into exactly the right position. Basically I run into being able to clearly see the button I want to click, but it's so small on the lower screen that it's hard to tap just the right spot. I know you can switch screens with the shoulder buttons, so that the enlarged view is on the bottom, but as far as I can tell, that doesn't change anything for the mouse...if the zoomed section is in the corner of the desktop and I try to click something in the middle of it, the mouse goes to the middle of the actual desktop. Couldn't it be made to work so that when the screen is switched, the mouse is also locked into that area, so that it would be easier to select whatever you wanted?

 

Oh, and lastly, the on-screen keyboard doesn't work in all programs for me (specifically it doesn't work with GAIM). Do you know why?

 

Otherwise this really is an incredible program, thanks for making it!

FireFlyII: The zoomed view should make the mouse go where it is shown on the zoomed view (not in the middle of the desktop like you said). I took a quick look at the code and didn't see anything wrong, so I suppose it it a bug, I'm not sure why. Dunno why the keyboard doesn't work, I suppose it is the way Windows and some programs handle keystrokes.

 

 

New version that is fixed for the M3 is up!

 

edit- Changed the keyboard too, try it now.

yay the corruption is fixed. but still cant connect to router. im using 128-bit wep..will that work with win2ds?

EDIT: i got it to connect a few times, but it mostly doesnt want to work. i have a feeling its cycling through the different conenction profile (i have 3 different ones) and it take time for it to fail on one and move to another. the connection ive been testing it on is profile #1...can you make it possible to specify which profile to use instead of waiting for it to time out?

One other thing, if possible: Since now connecting through external networks, would it be possible to have the option of putting in dynamic hostnames rather than simply IPs? I know my home IP continually changes but I run a dynamic dns on it. Would make it a lot easier.

 

Just a thought.

I have read and followed the troubleshooting guide. I have opened UDP port 8888 to my WinXP system. I have set the WFC settings on my DS. I have a Passkey with the M3 adapter. Unfortunately all I get is the Win2DS "loading" progress bar then both screens go blank. Any recommendations would be sincerely appreciated!

Thanks

Another wifi homebrew application wich doesn't work to me :-(

 

All I can to get is (after of to introduce no password):

 

"Waiting..."

 

I can't understand it, because all settings is correct: IP server, IP DS, gateway, DNSs, WFC data correct (with WEP) used by Mario Kart game... repeat: All correct in original game play.

 

But homebrew wifi don't work, in fact, it has never worked...

 

I'm very frustrated :-(

Edit: Yeah! It already works! :-D

 

The problem was that the damn Windows XP firewall was activated (surely by my antivirus software).

 

Thanks Sintax for this interesting program :-)

My program doesn't have a loading progress bar! Sounds like a problem with the M3.
