ftpii is an FTP server for the Nintendo Wii.

Usage

  • Copy ftpii/ to /apps/ on an SD-card and use The Homebrew Channel to load the app.
  • Once loaded ftpii will display the IP address of your Wii and the port that it's listening on.

Passwords:

  • To specify a password via The Homebrew Channel, rename the apps/ftpii directory to apps/ftpii_YourPassword.

Known issues

ftpii does not work with all clients; Finder thinks the Wii is read-only and refuses to write to it. Meanwhile, FileZilla refuses to download files using the normal button because it attempts to write to /.vol/path/to/file, which does not exist due to the root directory being virtual. This issue can be fixed by using the "View/Edit" button to open in TextEdit, then finding the file in Finder using the window bar instead of the normal download button.

Attempt to fix USB ethernet adapter by initialisaing network subsystem before FAT
