Usually by placing a pc in between the wii u and the internet and having that pc running a network traffic analyzing software like wireshark. That is the most common way it is done.

Oh ok. Maybe that's why some servers are missing from NUSgrabber. They haven't been discovered yet. Is this a possibility at all? I know that later on, it would be nice to be able to get missing Eshop games, VC, etc from NUS. Hopefully someone can figure this out.

Alright, thanks!
Just for added info on why I think this:
1. This version allows multiple games to be installed at the same same. The folder system is "sd:/install/*folder name*", each sub folder can contain an installable game. You can also select multiple games to install and they will all install one after the other
2. It fixed the total size and completion percent.

Neat, thanks. The one I have installs to the main NAND instead of my Wii U-formatted USB when I press X, oddly. Is that a known bug? Would this fix it?

No. I would be sure that anything that is really nus related has already been found. That is a rahter low level of amateur network analysis that anyone who knows about it can do. Finding servers is tit. Just those whom do not have a single bit of network infrastructure knowledge would not know this stuff.

I have several eshop games and the title id's are nowhere to be found online. When I put the title id into nusgrabber, it says not found.

eShop games wouldn't work with this method.

Either way, look here.

? Not sure what you mean, but they do download with nusgrabber. I have a few.

I have. They aren't there.

Example: 0005000010164700 - This is for Bonk's Adventure. It's not on any title ID site around and says not found with NUsgrabber. This leads me to believe that maybe some newer games are on a different server. I could be completely wrong but Tumblestone, tadpole treble, 777 slots, all of the Turbografx games are not downloadable through NUSgrabber.

Yes, they do, but they won't install properly on the Wii U without a ticket, and eShop games don't have disc versions to get tickets from.

I know that but they can be used with rednand eventually, someone did it for me already actually. I'm just saying that for some reason, some of the games I have aren't on any available on the server to download with Nusgrabber. I edited my last post

Yes they can be downloaded but they won't work till we can bypass the sig checks, which technically can be done right now with rednand, but we are waiting for a stable release.

folks How do you download updates with NUSgrabber?

I Use NUSgrabber to download the installation files
command prompt: nusgrabber.exe titleID
Ex: nusgrabber.exe 0005000010177700

what is the command to download latest update?
