So, what's the deal, I want to play Mario Kart Wii online with wiimmfi, preferably on dolphin because I don't have a USB to ethernet and there's a distance between the wii mini and router and yeahh it's a mess.
I decided that I should use Dolphin, but that one requires me to dump a real NAND. If I use an auto generated NAND, I have to wait 7 days, only for it to say access denied.
SO, the only way is to dump my NAND from my Wii Mini, tweak some stuff and we're good.
I mean, I already found some homebrew specifically made for wii mini:

...so what's stopping me?
Well, according to the thread I mentioned above, Realwnd Wii Mini edition requires me to patch IOS36 to IOS236..?
And I'm like, ok, but there's some text that says, ONLY for IOS36 or something. So I boot up my Wii Mini, and check the homebrew launcher and it says IOS58 (i think).
Is that my actual IOS or am I stupid and this is just the homebrew channel's IOS. Keep in mind, my Wii is (obviously) in version 4.3 sooo, is that IOS36...?? idk this is too complicated.
(Also, I installed some cIOS thing in order to use USB loader GX, but I don't know if that has to do with anything)
I know this is a full on ESSAY now but idk, I don't wanna brick my Wii out of pure stupidity.
