To follow this tutorial you will need:
>3DS / 3DS XL / 2DS or a New 3DS XL
>A PC or Laptop with two network connections running Windows 7 or Windows 8
>One network connection must be Ethernet
>The other network connection must be Wi-FI
Your PC must be connected to the internet via the Ethernet connection, so basically connected to your router with an Ethernet cable.The Wireless network connection must not be in use, this will become our fake Nintendo Zone Hotspot.
You should see something like this in Network Connections, if you have Hyper-V, Vm-Ware or any VPN software installed which create additional network connections, this can cause you problems, so disable them.
First download Maccheck from the attachments below and unzip the Maccheck to the root of your C:\ drive (or somewhere you can easily access it from)
Next open a Comment Prompt with Administrator Right (Right click on Command Prompt and click run as Administrator)
You can't to navigate to where Maccheck was saved, for me this was the root of my D:\ drive, so as you can see below i simply typed maccheck and my wireless network card was checked for comparability. The number 1's in the screenshot below means the card is compatible, if you get all 0's then your wireless card is not compatible.
Next you want to download the Nzone script(From Attachments below) and place this somewhere easy to access, just like you did with the Maccheck script.Again i saved this in the root of my D:\ drive.
Start the script by navigating to the folder it is saved in with Command Prompt, then type nzone.vbs start BASE256 and press enter
You will be asked to open the script:
This essentially configures a Virtual Wireless Adaptor on windows, shares the internet to it, then starts a scheduled task to change the mac address on the Virtual Wireless Adaptor so you can keep street passing people.
If you look in Network Connections (Control Pannel > Network and Internet > Network Connections) now you should now see that your internet connection has been shared to a Virtual Wireless Network called NZ@McD1
If you scan for wireless networks on a Wi-Fi enabled device, you should be able to see a new wireless network called NZ@McD.If you do then everything is setup, now you simply need to connect your 3DS to the NZ@McD1 wireless network to begin streetpassing people over the internet.
Setting the Nintendo 3DS up to StreetPass over the internet
First go to System Settings > Internet Setting > Connection Settings> and click on New Connection.
You should see the Nz@McD1 wireless network which is been hosted by your PC, click on that and set the connection up.
The password is nintendozone
All been well your 3DS will be able to connect to this Access Point.
That's it, presuming you have some StreetPass enabled games you should be able to StreetPass over the internet when you are at home
