<span style="font-size: .8vw;">To simplify things I'm going to refer to the WiFi board as "board", DS cartridge as "cart". Also note that "save chip" and "flash chip" are the same, though I use both terms for the cart and board, respectively.</span> <span style="font-size: .8vw;">To simplify things I'm going to refer to the WiFi board as "board", DS cartridge as "cart".

The SL1 terminal on the DS lite, located by the volume switch, is used to write-protect the firmware. When SL1 is open, it is impossible to edit the firmware. This board's SL1 was soldered shut, meaning someone was tampering with the firmware. It may have been done by Nintendo (the ever handy FCC docs show that they did officially solder this shut on some prototypes) or it may just have been someone who purchased it at some point down the line. Big bummer either way.<br> The SL1 terminal on the DS lite, located by the volume switch, is used to write-protect the firmware. When SL1 is open, it is impossible to edit the firmware.
