FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a way to transfer files wirelessly through a local network.
By using a piece of homebrew called ftpii, we can turn the Wii into an FTP server accessible on the network via an FTP client.
Requirements
On your PC:
- A working FTP client
On your Wii:
- An SD Card or USB drive
- ftpii
Instructions
Downloading
- Extract ftpii and put it in your apps folder on your SD card or USB drive
- The root of your SD Card should now look like this
- (root)
- apps
- ftpii
- boot.dol
- icon.png
- meta.xml
- ftpii
- apps
- (root)
- The root of your SD Card should now look like this
- Insert your SD card or USB drive into your Wii and launch ftpii from the Homebrew Channel.
Usage
Please don't touch the NAND unless YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING! |
- You should see your Wii's IP address and TCP port, remember them or write them down
- Open your chosen FTP client, install if you didn't already
- Fill the information as follows
- File protocol: FTP (not SFTP)
- Host Name/IP Address: The IP displayed on your Wii
- This is local, you do not need to censor it for assistance.
- Port number: The TCP port displayed on your Wii (usually 21)
- If you don't see this option, instead type
(ip):(port)
into the host name/IP address box, e.g.192.168.0.129:21
- 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"
You've now connected to your Wii via FTP! |
