Anyone good with Firewalls?
basically i had mcafee internet security and used a usb nintendo wifi connector to play game online without any hassle at all.
i today decided to upgrade to a newer mcafee internet security but since this the nintendo ds hasnt connected unless i turn the mcafee firewall off?
i have made sure that the nintendo program is in the allowed list for both incoming and outgoing connections
i have since turned the windows firewall on and its connecting fine but...
is this safe>?
and also why did it work fine with the last mcafee security package?
