How to Use ICS for DS

The Nintendo Wi-Fi USB connector is a universal serial bus dongle which, once connected to a computer, creates a Wi-Fi connection that can be used by Nintendo DSi or Nintendo 3DS portable video game consoles to access the Internet. This accessory relies on a Windows feature known as ICS, or Internet Connection Sharing. You can activate ICS from within the Windows control panel.
