Nintendo has updated the Wii U firmware to 5.5.4

toxic9 · Jul 1, 2019

That's very weird... maybe the 5.5.4 update was just a test to see how much consoles are online at that moment!

Well.. If it proves to be a booby-trap to remotely kill all modded consoles at any time, this swede goes safe.

It just updated some certificates.

Yeah, I know. Just kidding around.

It was awesome if you could connect your network to a VPN (Europe server) and check if your console can update.

Flaya · Jul 1, 2019

I'll check in a few. Any specific country?

Just outside of your country!
If you are going to setup the VPN on your PC, you must share that connection with your WiiU somehow.

I just pull it on my router.

That's perfect!
Share the results!
If your WiiU is able to update, keep the other one on 5.5.3E...

Flaya · Jul 1, 2019

Sure. Why keep it there, if it doesn't cause harm?

Just to check when in your country the update is available...
This is important for the community knowledge.

Flaya · Jul 1, 2019

Oh, sure. Well, connecting to servers now.

Edit: Update found. Updating now.

Edit2: Country set to Denmark.

Update succesful. Will keep track on the update on my other console.

toxic9 · Jul 1, 2019

That's incredible!
So we can conclude Nintendo tracks the source IP's and where they are connecting from....

Flaya · Jul 1, 2019

It certainly seems like it.

toxic9 · Jul 1, 2019

Now I wonder if your IP is banned somehow, or they are not offering that update on your country at all.

Flaya · Jul 1, 2019

I can access the E-shop and play MK8 online. So I'd assume it's not banned.

That's right..
Probably what 5.5.4 changes is not applicable on every country...
so they exclude the countries where they did not want to release the update.

Flaya · Jul 1, 2019

Could be.. We'll just have to wait and see..

Until then I'll keep working on getting my generic NES, SNES and N64 Usb controllers working in HIDtoVPAD. Been at it for a few months now.
