The following website has detailed instructions on how to unlock your DSI XL:

http://www.hacksden.com/showthread.php/225-Unlock-your-Nintendo-DS-%28Lite%29-or-DSi-%28XL%29

There is of course no warranty provided on those instructions. Once you have unlocked your DSI there is a chance that you will not be able to play certain software as manufacturers do not like it when you unlock their units. A lot of the newer software will actually check to ensure that the unit has not been hacked. You have to decide whether that risk is worth taking.

Some ds games do not work on my ds but will work on my sisters and there are other games that will work on my ds. Is the problem with the ds or the game

it might be because you have a DSi, and your sister has a DS or DS lite

if so you cannot play some games because DSi are region locked, basically an US DSi can only play US games, a japanese DSi can only play japanese games etc etc,

DS and DS lite are not region locked and can play any game

How do I connect my DSi to the internet?

Hi here's how you set it up online You must either have an internet access and a wireless router or you can connect your Nintendo DSi. Turn on your Nintendo DSi and click on the wrench icon. This will take you to the system settings
Go to page 3 and select "Internet".
Click "Connection Settings".
Click "None" to the right of "Connection 1".
Click "Search for an Access Point".
Look for an access point that has a gold lock that is unlocked. Select that access point and your Nintendo DSi should now be connected
If you are planning on playing games online with your Nintendo DSi and have WPA security, you will have to set your router to WEP security
To do this, get back to the "Connection Settings" screen mentioned in step 4.
Click "Advanced Setup".
Click any button that says "none".
Click "Search for an Access Point". Look for an access point that has a gold lock that is unlocked. Select that access point and your Nintendo DSi should now be connected.

How do I do internet setup for my Nintendo DSI XL? Can I do it or will I need a computer Tech to set it up? Thank You!!!

Turn on the Nintendo DSi then Click on the wrench icon to access "System Settings." Select "Internet" on the third page of System Settings. Select "Connection Settings" and tap the "None" bar in "Connection 1." You have the option of setting up a connection manually, or searching for available connections in the area. The easiest thing to do is select "Search for an Access Point." Your Nintendo DSi will list the names of any wireless access points in range. A gold, unlocked icon next to the connection's name signifies an unlocked WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) connection that can be accessed immediately. A locked gold icon signifies an encrypted WEP connection that requires a WEP key (password).
If you are accessing a locked/encrypted connection, enter your WEP key. You may also click "Change Security Settings" to enter a WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) key. If your WEP key is correct, your Nintendo DSi should connect. You can test your connection to verify. You're set! Now you can surf the Internet, purchase games and add-ons in the Nintendo DSi Shop, and play games that allow wireless access and competition (with WEP connections, only).
Note Most Nintendo DS and DSi owners can get online by searching for an access point, but some might have to resort to manual setup.The Nintendo DSi can go online with a WPA connection, but actually playing DSi games online requires a WEP connection.

From Wiki:

"The immediate successor to the Nintendo DS, the Nintendo DSi, is region-locked, but only in terms of its downloadable games. Physical DS game carts will play on it regardless of region of origin (DSi-only and even DSi-enhanced games are region-locked though)."

Bought a Nintendo DS game cart from the states and it will not play on my UK spec DSi console. Is there anyway around this?

It sounds like it's a DSi game you've bought, correct?
Those are unfortunately (and stupidly IMO) region locked, and you will not be able to run it.
If it is however just a DS game, there's no reason it wouldn't work, that being the case let me know what game it is and I'll see what info I can dig up!

Can't play ds fireline (100 games in 1) in dsi

The DSi blocks all flashcards that were released before it. Your card is one of those blocked cards, so you can't do much except return that and buy a DSi-compatible cart online. As for the region, the DSi hasn't been hacked yet so region changing isn't possible at the moment.

Japanese game wont play on ps2 slimline!

if its in a region lock, its impossible to be played on a American PS2, if your PS2 is modded it will read any region locked discs, the only possible solution is to buy a Japanese Version PS2
