FTP is a way to transfer files wirelessly through a network to and from the Wii .
Luckily, with FTPiiU, we can use this method to transfer files wirelessly to a Wii U instead of moving the SD card back and forth each time.
What You Need
On your computer:
- A working FTP client
- Windows: Use WinSCP
- Using FTP through File Explorer is not recommended. It is very unreliable.
- macOS: Use Cyberduck
- Linux: Nautilus or Dolphin, the file explorers for GNOME and KDE respectively - if not usable, use gFTP instead
- Android 5.0 and above: Use ftpclient
- iPhone: Use FTPManager
- To add files to "My Files" in the app, use the default files app to move desired files to
On My iPhone/FTPManager
- To add files to "My Files" in the app, use the default files app to move desired files to
- Windows: Use WinSCP
Installation
 |
The FTPiiU plugin can be downloaded via the Aroma Updater. The instructions below are if you want to manually install it. |
- Download the latest release of FTPiiU.
- Extract the contents of
ftpiiu_v0_3_1.ziptowiiu/environments/aroma/plugins. - Insert your SD card back into your Wii U.
- If the console wasn't already off, Reboot the console after doing so.
- To see your Wii U's IP, Open the plugins menu by pressing L + DPAD DOWN + Select, and you'll see it in the FTPiiU tab.
|
FTPiiU doesn't need to be launched on Aroma. It is a plugin, so it works automatically anywhere on the console. |
- Download the latest release of FTPiiU.
- Extract the contents of
ftpiiu.zipto the root of your SD card. - Insert your SD card into your Wii U.
- Open the Homebrew Launcher (Mii Maker for Tiramisu).
- Navigate to FTPiiU.
- Launch FTPiiU.
- Your IP will be visible at the bottom.
How to Use
- If you haven't already, install the FTP client for your operating system
- Open the FTP client and fill in the information as follows:
- File protocol: FTP (not SFTP)
- Host name/IP address: The IP address displayed on the GamePad or TV (e.g. 192.168.0.67)
- This is a local IP address, so you don't need to censor it if you need assistance
- Port number: Usually 21 by default, so leave it blank
- If you don't see this option, instead type
(ip):(port)into the host name/IP address box, e.g.192.168.0.67:21
- If you don't see this option, instead type
- Username/password: If you see a checkbox for "Anonymous login", then enable it; otherwise, just leave it blank
- Click "Login" or "Connect"
- If prompted to enter a username or password, press ENTER to leave it blank
