How to connect nintendo DS to router with wpa. I have laptop but only wifi, way to broadcast wifi from laptop?

My roommate will not switch the security from wpa to wep, and I can't run a wire from the router to my laptop. Is there a way to re-broadcast a wifi signal from my laptop out to my nintendo ds with either no security or wep?

If your laptop's connection is wireless then you will not be able to "rebroadcast" because you are only allowed one connection. The only way your setup would work is if you bought an additional wireless card for your laptop (PCMCIA, USB, etc.) and setup Internet Connection Sharing. Assuming you buy a second wireless card, you can follow http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/expert/crawford_02july01.mspx that tutorial.
