Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector XP/Vista Driver Version 1.07 (12/01/08)

Nintendo have released an updated installer for Nintendo Wi-Fi Connector. I can’t see any changes from the previous driver, even the release notes are the same. What’s more strange, 1.06 was labelled “Final” and both versions link to the same file.

It’s very strange. See for yourself in the documentation.
