News: Surf Wi-Fi On Dial-Up!

Still stuck in the stone-age with 56k? It seems you can now play online as well via this nifty work-around...
We're not going to take credit for it, in fact, we barely understand it ourselves. But some clever person has found out that taking your DS online with only a dial-up modem isn't as impossible as Nintendo make it out to be. And all you need is a wireless router to do it!
Even though lots of people think that wifi with dial-up would lag and cause the people with high speed internet to go slow, but that is not true. At normal dial-up speed (56kb) it will go just about as fast as high speed internet; the only thing that will happen if you have a really slow dial-up connection or if you're downloading on the internet at the same time you will just see the other characters of the other people you are connected to go slow or bounce and the other people will just see your character go slow or bounce on their screen.
