Error 051099-1 DSi Wifi connection Solved/Closed

Question

Hello everyone!

I got my DSi!!!!!!!!!!! Woohoooooo!!
I can't connect!!!!!!!!!! Noooooo!!

I entered the information for my Free Box, and despite that, it still shows me the same error message:

Unable to find a
compatible access point.
Check the SSID settings
and move closer
to an access point.
...

Error code: 051099-1

Could you please help me???

Thank you in advance.

Configuration: Windows Vista Firefox 3.0.8

I successfully completed the test.
I went into advanced settings, and it took me to connections 4, 5, and 6.
You go into one of those and from there you can configure everything.
I filled in my static IP, the DNS, the proxy if there is one, the security mode WEP, WPA, WPA2, etc.

So the test was successful, but as you will quickly see, we don't have a browser or the log to browse, so we will need to find that on the net.

However, don't touch the MTU value at 1400, it works with that!

Kiss.

fan · Answer

Me too, I can't connect either, but I get code 051300-1 even though the connection worked with a Wii. What should I do?

Romano59 · Answer

Yes, I also need help. I got my DSi this morning, and I can't figure out what's not working.

Vanes23 · Answer

at least I'm not alone!!! lol

Romano59 · Answer

What I understand is that with my DS Lite it works perfectly, and then, well, it works less well lol.

Canellia.. · Answer

Sorry for the delay.

Actually, I recommend you do as I mentioned earlier:
advanced connections and configure everything, set your IPs to static, fill in the DNS and proxy if necessary. This way, you will see that several types of security are offered: WPA2; WPA, WEP, and so on.

Good luck, otherwise tell me more about your connection methods.

Good luck!!

mike · Answer

Good evening,

I just connected my son's device to a Sagem livebox.

You shouldn’t use connections 1 to 3 but instead go to "advanced settings" where you can access choices 4 to 6, then "Modify" "SSID" e.g.: Livebox-b2fa, then "WPA-PSK(TKIP)": enter the key. You should not choose "WEP key" if that option is available but WPA.

Save it and test it with the livebox in association mode (button next to the power supply)

Good luck

Mike

vince · Answer

Hello, I've been changing the security type and entering the code for a good half hour and nothing is happening. I have a mini-Sagem, what should I do to make it work finally?

BUD8 · Answer

In fact, I think the problem is that I don't have a "router"...

Vanes23 · Answer

I tried advanced settings, WPA-PSK (TKIP) key, I entered the key, saved it, and it doesn't work: I get the error code: 051110-1
I have an Inventel livebox and I had it set to association!
Could you please tell me what to put for the following parameters??
I set it to yes for automatic IP address and DNS acquisition; no for proxy server.
Otherwise, could you guide me on what to put at each step???
Thank you in advance!!!

Canellia.. · Answer

Hello,

I sincerely apologize for the delay!

I advise you all to set the IP and DNS yourself; you can see your DNS by doing: start; cmd; ipconfig

and the DNS being used by your PC will be the same as that for your DSI. As for the IP, check that of your PC, and if you only have one or two PCs and your IPs are static, set the last three-digit series slightly higher than those of your PCs.

For example: if you have one PC at 192.168.1.2 and another at 192.168.1.3, choose your DSI IP as 192.168.1.4 or 192.168.1.5, for instance. But make sure to go into advanced settings. Also, check your protection type on your box for the password. Don't change the MTU value at first!
If there is no proxy, perfect.

Looking forward to it.

mike · Answer

Here are the details of the settings with DSi and normal Sagem Livebox:

Choose "advanced settings" to access connections 4 to 6

then "connection 5" for example

then "search for an access point" the DSi will find your Livebox as well as those of your neighbors

select yours "Livebox-f5c6" for example

then WPA-PSK(TKIP) will appear
select the white rectangle below

enter your Livebox code using uppercase letters but without spaces between 4x digits or letters

OK
OK
Save Ok

"Ok for the test" make sure the Livebox is in association mode first

the Livebox will start the test

if there is a connection error see:
"SSID" shows the name of your Livebox
if "obtaining IP address automatically" and "obtaining DNS automatically" have "yes" selected;
"proxy server" should have "no" selected
and "MTU value" = 1400

Vanes23 · Answer

Thank you very much for your answers!!  I'll try that tomorrow when I have my niece's DSi!!  Vanessa

Vanes23 · Answer

Thank you Mike !!!!

I just tried it and it works perfectly!!!

I looked for the access point and entered the key (uppercase letters, which is what I wasn't doing!!!) and it worked right away!!!

My little niece is going to be happy!!!

Thanks again Mike!!! :)

ouimais · Answer

Uh, that's nice and all, but the web, and putting the Livebox in some mode I don't remember so that it works, how do we do that? :( I've been trying since the release day (April 3rd) and it's not working -,-

ouimais · Answer

I found it!! (well not me) You have to press button 1; which is located behind the Livebox (not underneath).

Lynda · Answer

Good evening,

I wanted to thank you, since last Saturday I've been trying in vain to connect the DSi to the wifi with the Livebox, and I finally succeeded.

At one point the DSi was working, and then it stopped working on the computer (it was driving me crazy) and thanks Mike, my daughter is super happy.

That's great, thank you very much.

antoine08 · Answer

I can connect to my Freebox normally, but when I start a game like Mario Kart and click on Wi-Fi, it doesn't work. And the padlock symbol for my network is grey, so I can't connect.  Help!!!!!!

fahrenheit25 · Answer

Good evening everyone,  I’m probably a bit more foolish than you, but I can't find the "advanced options" tab on my DSi!  Could someone help me?  Thank you in advance.

XD · Answer

Without wishing to be disrespectful, I’m interrupting the discussion because I managed to connect my nds i to the internet through my "freebox."  I only had to choose the type of encryption (WEP or WAP/AES, etc...) Then enter the code that was previously recorded on the freebox.com site.  Everything works perfectly. I hope I was able to help those who find it necessary.  I wish you all good luck with your installation. HAPPY GAMING! ;)

armanlilou · Answer

I see that many people know their stuff on the forum, I posted my question but I haven't received a response, so I'm trying here. I'm with club-internet and I have a TECOM AH4222, and I can't access the DSI shop to download the internet channel. I managed to configure the console, and when I do the connection test, it says the test is successful. When I want to go to the shop channel, I can log in, then I accept the terms, sometimes I can get to the page asking to link my club-nintendo account on the DSI and it crashes every time I want to link it or not. Can someone shed some light on this for me? Thanks.

Zepa · Answer

Don't forget (like me lol) the association, the button 1 of the box!!! Do the test with the blinking LED!!!

Charlo80 · Answer

Hello everyone,

I have the DS and I'm trying to connect but without success.
I've set the advanced settings, the correct Livebox, the correct WEP key, automatic DNS acquisition, etc... no proxy server, and I haven't touched the MTU value. When I test the connection, it fails with an error code: 051310-1. I checked the Nintendo support site and they tell me it's because my WEP key has changed, but it hasn't changed. Could you please help me?

Thank you in advance.

daviderde · Answer

Salut à toi, en fait je pense qu'il faut que tu tapes dans la barre d'adresse ton adresse IP et donc tu vas tomber sur les paramètres de ta Livebox. Après, tu vas dans configuration, ensuite tu vas dans avancés et ensuite dans sans fil. Après, tu mets ta sécurité en clé WEP seulement. Ensuite, tu me soumets, tu attends et voilà, tu as juste à rentrer la clé WEP.

yuri shino · Answer

Excuse me, I have the regular DS thank you in advance

sasoo-not problème · Answer

Nothing to do with it, you just need to go next to your box and ... test all the corners of the box with any of the connections, you will find at some point an access point.

Hello, I'm Jessica. I do everything but put my Livebox in WPA-PSK (TKIP). But it still shows the code error 051099-1. Please help me.

maxdu625 · Answer

You need to fill everything out, then press the button under your livebox or whatever, after they will say that it doesn't work, THAT'S NORMAL, then you go to the terms of use and accept it. THERE YOU GO I hope that helps you.

rem · Answer

Suivez tous mes conseils : il faut aller dans paramètres avancés, connexion 4. Ensuite (moi j'ai une clé WEP), il faut entrer la clé, mais si vous avez une autre clé que la clé WEP, il faut mettre la clé que vous voulez, mais pas votre vraie clé, sinon vous n'allez pas réussir. Après, il faut mettre le SSID et vous appuyer sur le bouton de votre box (il faut appuyer sur un bouton et après ça va clignoter et vous faites le test de connexion et vous avez internet. Dites-moi si ça a marché. J'espère que vous allez vous en sortir, moi ça a marché. PS : n'oubliez pas qu'il faut qu'il y ait un bouton qui fasse clignoter votre box.

???????????? · Answer

I'm trying to work with the web (I can't remember my WPA-PSK (TKIP) code). What should I do????? (Thanks anyway)

Pip'A · Answer

For all those who have a Livebox, I encountered the same problem. I can connect to the internet when there are no games on the console (WPA protection > which corresponds to the wifi key)
however, when I want to play online, it only recognizes WEP keys (that's where the issue lies) so you either need to change the protection of your Livebox (from WPA to WEP) or buy a wifi adapter or wait for Nintendo to release an update..
so basically no concrete answer
good luck to everyone

xjess29x · Answer

I managed to get the internet on my DSi: I did:

-> Console settings
-> Internet
-> Connection settings
-> Advanced settings
-> Connection 4, 5, or 6.
-> Search for an access point
-> Your box should normally appear, click on it.
-> Change the security type
-> WPA-PSK (TKIP)
-> OK
-> Security key. (All in uppercase, all attached).
-> Perform the connection test (Yes)
-> Normally it works.

If IT DOESN'T WORK, YOU CAN DO THE SAME EXCEPT WITH CONNECTION 1, 2, or 3.
I SUCCEEDED WITH MY UNCLE WHO IS AN IT SPECIALIST. GOOD LUCK!

If YOU GET IT WORKING, YOU NEED TO GO TO:
-> THE DSi SHOP
-> ACCESS THE SHOP
-> DSi WARE
-> FREE DSi WARE
-> DOWNLOAD NINTENDO DSi BROWSER
If YOU WANT TO GO ON THE INTERNET (GOOGLE, YAHOO, MSN, ETC...)

try this 1: connect to your livebox home, explanation: when you connect to the internet, where you have the website address e.g. https://www.google.fr/?gws_rd=ssl you delete the COMPLETE address!! including the http... and you type the IP address of your PC in the form 197.169.2.8 there you will land on your livebox home with your network name, etc. you enter your connection identifiers NB: if identifier=admin password = admin 2: go to the "configuration" tab then "livebox" then "wifi settings" There at the bottom you will see a list where your PC is located with its IP address, Mac, etc. all the devices authorized to connect to your livebox are in this list, the goal being to register your DSi in this list :D 3: go to "advanced settings" and add your DSi with its IP address and its Mac address found in your DSi under "internet" "options" "general information" 4: check that your DSi console is properly listed in the previously described list 5: redo the connection that led you to that damn error message and hop it works
