I was able to successfully hack both the WiiU & Vwii following the Definitive Guide to Hacking WiiU etc.
The problem is that the Browser Hack I am using for the WiiU is unreliable. It works but working means, 1 out of 30 times running the browser hack. When it doesn't work the system crashes and I have to reboot and start the process all over again until it works. I am running on firmware version 5.4.0
What bothers me is that I was able to successfully set this up on my friend's WiiU that had older firmware. Initially it kept crashing and giving memory errors. It works flawlessly for him with no crashes whatsoever once I upgraded his WiiU thru disc update to 5.3.2. My WiiU has the blocks on the router going out to Nintendo's sites. In addition, I tried to run the self hosting method with no success. I followed Kafluke's self hosting guide and ran it on my pc. I was able to make the exceptions on my firewall and run the Xampp app. I can see the menu on my local pc just the same as on my WiiU thru the browser.
Once I get to the menu from the WiiU and try to launch loadline GX2 it freezes just like the browser hack.
I tried launching the Kexploit before running Loadline but still running into issues. I get the same result when trying to launch loadline via Selfhosting/Browser Hack in that my system crashes. I am certain that with enough tries I can get the selfhost to work just like the browser hack does but looking for a more reliable method.
Couple of Questions
1.) Should I consider an upgrade to 5.5.1 ?
2.) Briefly read about Brazilian method or RedNand which isn't all the way there yet. How long will it be till this method gets fleshed out ?
3.) Is the self hosting thru Android Phone w/ Hotspot more reliable than PC option ?
Current Setup: WiiU Wireless / PC Hardwired
4.) Anything else I can try to make it reliable ?
