it works perfect with my PSP, and Wii, and also with notebooks, the only problem is that intallation in windows is not intuitive (you must stop the windows wifi service), i reccomend to search for a good tutorial over the internet.
After a good configuration the product works perfect!! :D

詳細描述
Take your consoles online – wirelessly…
So you have a Nintendo Wii or an NDS (original or Lite). If you’re lucky, you have both! You also have a broadband internet connection for your PC. But you don’t have a wireless network. What’s the easiest, cheapest way to take your consoles online and compete with gamers from all over the world? Simple – WiFi MAX for Nintendo Wii and DS/DS Lite!
WiFi MAX is your ticket to the exciting world of online gaming, and it couldn't be simpler to use. Just plug your USB WiFi dongle into your internet-enabled PC to create a Wireless Access Point. You can then connect to the internet and play online-enabled multiplayer games with DS and Wii gamers from all over the world. Just the thing if you don't have a wireless router! Best of all, WiFi MAX supports up to five ‘local' DS gamers at a time, so you and your mates can all play online at once with no loss of speed!
Don’t forget, there’s more to the Nintendo Wii’s online service than playing games. You can also download additional material such as new levels, skins, artwork and even retro games! That’s right – Nintendo is gradually making its back-catalogue classics for old Nintendo machines such as the NES, SNES and N64 available to Wii owners through the Virtual Arcade service. And with WiFi MAX, you can download them through your broadband internet connection! Just think what you’ll be missing out on if you don’t take your Wii online…
As WiFi MAX operates on the Wireless G standard, it's five times faster than an ordinary WiFi connection, and if you use our USB cable and dongle stand (supplied), you can position your dongle to maximise WiFi range. If you have other WiFi-enabled devices capable of using the internet, such as laptops or PDAs, you can take them online with WiFi MAX too. It's the ultimate device for internet surfing without a WiFi router!

Going Online? Well, for online play like, monster hunter, it didn't work for me. I even went for tutorials and loads of forums but still no go until i found a tutorial saying that the white wifimax (which is what this product is) doesn't work for most people trying to get their psp online. They they suggested getting a wifilink which is an older version of the wifimax. So I went to buy it and that worked perfectly. The wifilink is recommended if you are trying to play psp online.
You'll regret it. Everyone seems to be buying this but I'm telling you....if you buy this you'll regret it. When you do, don't come crying because many people have warned you how bad this is. WiFi Max = rubbish. Datel won't help you. It was hard enough getting it to work on XP and guess what people it's practically impossible to get it to work on Vista even though Datel have a page that tells you how to set it up for Vista which, not surprisingly, doesn't work.
Worst Wireless Modem... if you managed to get it to work! I bought this product about half a year ago and it's still not working now. Datel e-mail support isn't helping (and takes a long time to response), no instructions, not accurate setup wizard... It's really hard to make it work. Well, it's working (after a few manual setups), my PSP, DS and Wii all detects it but none of them can connect to the internet. And it's not worth the price. Just buy a wireless router instead, for the same or even lower price. Don't buy this thing!
Works fine IF you ever manage to install it! I'll just start off saying that it took me around 5 hours to finally get my PSP online with this thing. 5 hours of looking on the net and finding answers. Why you ask? Because the instruction manual given is absolute useless which only tells you half of what you need to know. It misses all the critical tweaks you have to manually do in the settings and only tells you the main steps.
I bought this after getting a PSP Slim (already having a DS Lite). I had the official Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector but since the PSP wouldn't work on that, I decided to buy this WiFi MAX because it worked with both and I sold the official Nintendo one on eBay. Let me just say that if you only have a DS or Wii, AVOID this at all costs! The official one does everything for you and you'll be online in around 5 minutes. This one however takes forever only because you basically have to find out yourself how to install it.
It works fine once it's all connected and I do like the included stand which is pretty nifty. The picture shows a black dongle and stand but the one I got was white. I haven't tried connecting my DS yet but I'd imagine it'd be the same procedure.
Overall though, if you decide to get this, be prepared to spend a long time getting it to work. Only get this if you've got a PSP. If you've only got a DS or Wii, don't even think about getting this....just get the official one...TRUST ME!
Excelent product it works perfect with my PSP, and Wii, and also with notebooks, the only problem is that intallation in windows is not intuitive (you must stop the windows wifi service), i reccomend to search for a good tutorial over the internet.
After a good configuration the product works perfect!! :D

joke worst piece of hardware, wii picked it up twice, couldnt get on the internet with it, not worth that price, a proper wireless modem are around the same price. dont do it!!
It's ok But extremely difficult to set up as there are no instructions and the auto wizard isn't accurate. The official one is still easier and less of a hassle.
WiFi Max - Too good for a score
Its average price £24.99 beats that of having to buy a Wireless G wifi card for the computer, and set up the wifi network for both PSP and NDS, setup all your software, WEP keys and installation of drivers and software. Might be a steep price for the younger gamer, but I feel paying this for the peace of mind that this will be compatible with both consoles as well as periodic updates, makes the product worth its price tag. Consider this to be a wireless like organizer for your PSP or DS...it is a simple device yet opens up an umbrella of useful features, not only when it comes to file management but also when it comes to online gaming.
I believe this isn't the kind of product of which I can give a score to it as it's the first of its kind, thus setting the benchmark (a darn high one at that). This product left me feeling more than content, due to it's relatively simple nature there isn't much to flaw it on if anything. It does exactly what it says on the box, supports both handhelds and it is an absolute breeze to navigate through the respective software.
Quality: Finely built hardware, the adapter was very sturdy and built with quality in mind. Top notch software with rich features.
Practicality: All in one solution for Nintendo DS and Sony PSP. Can connect to Computers and PDAs as well.
Price: Slightly high for some younger consumers, but given its features, ultimately worth its price.
Compatibility: Windows Only. No known issues with drivers or software.
Usefulness: Multi-Purpose Wifi-G connection for high speed media transfer, downloadable content and useful for for online gaming for both consoles.

Super Pleased..!!! i'm indonesian and i've been searchin for this kind of item for about 2months, i went to every game and hobby stores and i was hopeless...then decided to googling it.
found play-asia, purchased it and here is my comment:
great item...and how do yu know i'm playing black ds lite that yu delivered me a black wifimax(i thought its all white since the picture of it is in white)..wow you're paranormal...fufufufu...
fast delivery (hongkong-indonesia in 6 days with free-shipped method)
I haven't got it but I love it already! Man this stuff must be good. I pissed in my pants when i found out what it can dooo. WOOT I love you, you piece of plastic transmitter!
Wifi Max Good product, it does its job.
However the software that should configure automatically the device doesn't seem to work well. I've lost 5 minutes trying to make it work then I've just installed the dongle's driver and manually configured the IP settings on PC and DS.
Great Product I love this product, which for unknown reason, no one mensions that it also supports Nintendo DS (comes with a software that configures the adapter to work with the DS).
One complaint about it is that because that it acts as a wireless adapter, you must create a wireless netwrok using windows "create a home network" wizard. After that all should work fine.
Graetest Thing Ever Don't listen to those Htaers there stupid it was the greatest product ever. Installation took a while but with the updated driver its my wireless connection all-day. I also never wanted to drop 100 bucks on a router when this is a great connection it even has my lap-top online plus i kick ass all over the world now this is a great buy pick it up.
I don't know... Hi there,
I just receive this product and it's quite good.
I can connect my dopod and psp easily to the internet.
But for my NDS....its a big NO NO NO!
I can't even detect my WIFI MAX. I don't know what's the problem. The manual book that came with the WIFI MAX doesn't say anything about this.
And I found a lot people are having trouble connecting their NDS with their computer.
If anybody know how to connect NDS to PC please let me know
I would like to give 3 or 2 stars...but I couldn't do it. I don't know why...
Anyway..that's my honest opinion about this product
maybe a router would have been better I was excited at first when it arrived, but soon after i found it difficult to install. The intruction manual(small packet) was very vague. It had about 2 sentences telling you about the installation. The other 9 pages were decribing all the things that you can find in ur psp manual. I was unsuccesful getting it to work. After two times with customer support i got it working. The connection stays mostly in the room, where as a router would most liked get the whole house. Plus you must have ur comp on for it to work which i found a nuisance. I also found that the unit heats up very fast. So i normally don't keep it in too long. In addition, its not as portables as seen. it takes some time to instal the drivers so u can't really bring it to different computers. For the extra money i would personally get the router.
WHOA Portable just like the PSP whereas I thought it was going to be overly large. Definatelly a Must-Have for if you are thinking of playing any games online. I'm currently playing monster hunter and it's a hassle to drive an hour just to meet up with my friends for direct connection. WiFi definatelly helped cut down the gas expenses. Thank you Play-Asia for your great services and awesome products!
no issues on hardware. software and manual could be more user friendly. rating is for the bad documentation that came with it as well as the information on codejunkies. the manual is extremely brief and for a person who is not so familiar with PC, it's a real pain. even the instructions on codejunkies can be a bit more "clearer".
SO worth it YEEEE!!!!! i have socom for the psp, now i can log online and play ppl all around the us...its really simple to install...must have a shared network internet to work... if u guys are having trouble installing wifi max email me at lilbuckyboi@hotmail.com and i well do my best to help u..
Wifi max I bought it and it's very good!!
I've connected with 1 more friend using this adapter, and it was going well! I found it easy to install and is cheaper than the official.
Amazing i was astonished to find that it was so easy to set up. This one also works with my DS!!! One down side is it doesn't have as much range as a wireless router would have, but i'm always by my computer anyway.
