What is WLAN?

What is WLAN?

Wireless Local Area Network, which Copper calls DS to DS.

CoN, you can connect to Nintendo WFC through a WiFi hotspot located in many restaurants and cafes, through your own wireless router with a high-speed internet connection or via the Nintendo WiFi USB Adapter, which requires Windows and high-speed internet.

Why do they call it WLAN then? DS to DS sounds fine to me.

I wanted to sound Technical.


WLAN has been around longer than the DS has.

Just for the record, it's only Windows XP (every kind Home Edition, Pro, etc.)

WLAN is Wireless Local Area Network.
