Video and Computer Game Software Rating Information
Use
to choose a secret question,
then select OK.
The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) ratings are designed to provide information about video
and computer game content, so you can make informed purchasing decisions. ESRB ratings have two parts:
rating symbols suggest age appropriateness for the game, and content descriptors indicate elements in a
game that may have triggered a particular rating and/or may be of interest or concern.
To take full advantage of the ESRB rating system, it’s important to check both the rating symbol
(found on the front of the game box) and the content descriptor (found on the back of the game box).
Enter an answer to the secret question,
and then select OK. The answer must be three
or more characters long.
The ESRB rating system is designed to provide information about a computer or video game. The ratings
are not meant to recommend which games consumers should buy or rent or to serve as the only basis for
choosing a product. Rather, individuals should use the ESRB ratings together with personal tastes and
standards when deciding what is best to purchase.
The answer to your secret question will be
used in the event you forget your PIN.
Please remember this answer.

DSi and an access point. The access point and the system must be set to the same
value. It’s also known as a code key or password.
Key
The unique identification number assigned to a specific Nintendo DS when
using Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. This number is assigned automatically
when you first connect to Nintendo WFC, and it can change if connection
settings are overwritten.

About Wireless Security and Key Input
The Gateway IP is the machine on a network that tells other computers on the
same network where to go to find either other computers on the same network,
or how to get out of the network to access the Internet.
• Characters entered on the connection configuration screen appear as asterisks (*).
Gateway IP
•There are two key-entry methods; ASCII, which uses both letters and
numbers, and hexadecimal, which uses numbers 0 through 9, and letters a through f.
•The Nintendo DSi system only works with access points using key-based encryption. If the access point
to which you are trying to connect uses a different encryption method, you will have to change the
access points encryption method.
DNS, or Domain Name Service, is the method of translating the name of a
website to the IP address of the computer on which that website is contained.
This server’s IP address will be entered during pre-connection set up.

being used.
ASCII: 5, 13, or 16
Hexadecimal: 10, 26 or 32
This number represents the largest amount of data that can be sent at one time
over a network.
MTU (Maximum
Transmission Unit)
A method of encryption used to protect transmissions between the Nintendo DSi
system and an access point.
WEP
A method of encryption used to protect transmissions between the Nintendo DSi
system and an access point. The encryption used is more secure than WEP security.
About Entering WPA Keys
WPA-PSK (TKIP)/
WPA2-PSK (TKIP)
•The number of characters used by keys differs depending on the method being used.
ASCII: 8 to 63 characters
Hexadecimal: 64 characters
