Homebrew Use DSi as wireless gamepad for PC?

[QuazaRayy]

i don't want a ds homebrew i want it to be tailor-made for the dsi (as in using the wpa internet settings for the dsi)

I think nocash has gotten a little into WPA/2, but, no one has implemented it yet, as far as I know.

So it is not possible to use, let's say, DS2Key with a DSi, even if you have a WEP hotspot?

It should be possible that way, but I personally have never tested that.

I tried it and couldn't get it to work. I followed like 4 guides, tried everything such as adding exceptions to my firewall and port forwarding... Nothing worked

Weird, I'll try doing it today, if I remember.

Thank you and good luck

Thanks. I was able to successfully, once I turned SSID Isolation off.

I'd post a video of it, but my phone doesn't record video very well.

The mouse works but sometimes spazzes out, and it's not the smoothest movement.

Keep in mind that both devices must be on the same network.

Edit: I'm not sure if this is software-related or not, but, just so you know, it has a ~0.3 to ~0.6 second input lag, so it's not exactly ideal for most games, if that's what you had in mind.

I don't have SSID Isolation on. If you can link the video to see if I have done anything wrong, that would be nice. I don't care about the mouse, just the DPad... However, I read that there is no input lag at all

Did you use DS2key or any other programs? I hope that I won't face input lag too (if it works).

EDIT: I read that the input lag is because of the GUI logs. If you don't use the GUI logs it will not lag (lag will also be reduced if you set them to anything else besides "All Messages". Could you try that too?)

I didn't do much to setup. Just obtained my local IP via ipconfig, started the program, and inputted that into the DS side. I didn't portforward or anything like that.

Just a couple of 3D games and windows.

Where is that option?

I don't really know, did you use the GUI or the CMD version?

I did the same things and it didn't work tho... Which release did you use?

GUI, r52

GUI, r52

Well I don't really know because I have never connected it.

I used r52 too, do you use TWLMenu++ or a flashcart?

Hm, weird. I'll check again later today.

TWLM++

TWLM++

And where did you place the files? Do they have to bee on the root?

I really do not know why it isn't working for me...

I placed them on the root, but I don't think they have to be there.

Uhh, maybe you inputted the incorrect IP address? Most start with 192.168 iirc.

I tried placing them on the root too and it didn't work. I also used the correct IP...

I dunno, then. Some routers just don't want to work, but it may not be that.

Alright, thanks for all the help and the time. I guess I should just stick with my keyboard

Mm'k. Just so you know, I found the log option, in v101 (or was it 102?). I'm not sure why it wasn't in the r52 which was later uploaded.
