Basically, I cannot get it to connect at all. Not in any of the games, not in DS download.

The results that came up through Google were all set up for the DS lite and as such the screen that they showed to use doesn't exist on my DS. All I want to do is download game demos (and possibly use some homebrew apps).

Any ideas?

I thought the software and pretty much the hardware for the DS and DS lite were exactly the same... they just managed to cram it into a smaller package for the lite?

Maybe try re-setting it by removing the battery and leaving it a few minutes?
