The Nintendo Wii/DS wireless adaptor is a USB plugin that plugs into your PC. This turns your own PC into a wireless hotspot that the DS or the Wii can connect to, so if your computer uses a wired connection, you can connect them wirelessly.
It can also be used if your own router uses WPA encryption - the DS can only connect using WEP, and can use the adaptor to connect instead. Note that while the DSi can use WPA encryption, this is only for the DSi store or browser, not games, so it can be useful to DSi users too.

How can you get internet for the Nintendo DS?
You can get it in one of two ways. You can either get a Nintendo Wireless adaptor, which only works for the DSIand Wii, OR you can buy a wireless router for ANYTHING that can use the internet. THEN you go onto settings, go to the internet option (some games do this on the startup menu) and search for your chosen wireless adaptor. Then you do the fiddly bits (it changes for each type), then you can connect to the internet! You cannot get it on a regular Nintendo Ds!!!(well you can try)
