Cannot connect DS Lite to wireless router?

My router is a Linksys wireless-G broadband router 2.4GHz 802.11g with speed booster. It is unsecured because I live in a nearly secluded area and have no need for encryption.

My desktop is connected to an ethernet port on the back of the router.

My DS sees the router and knows it is unsecured, but when it goes to do a connection test, it will not connect.

I get error code 51300 and it says the following:

"Unable to connect to an access point. Confirm Nintendo WFC connection settings and access point settings"

The router is pretty old (at least 4 years) and is covered in dust. If that means anything.

What can i do to fix this?

    dust can make a big difference. clean it. if that doesnt work, you need a new router. I use wireless sooooooooo I have no trouble. but thats my opinion.
