Hi,

just got my hands on a hackable switch and got my micro sd card, still waiting on the jumper thingy.

When I got the switch its firmware was already at 12.1.0 - will this be a problem? because on this guide it says its unhackable but im guessing this guide is dated as well.

I see atmosphere is updated for 12.1.0 so will I be okay to get started once my jumper comes in the mail?

Thanks.

Sure fire way to tell is inject a payload

If you got an unpatched unit it is 100% exploitable, if it potentially patched it is 50/50% you got to push a payload to see.

Appreciate it guys, I'll try this out soon as my RCM tool comes in tomorrow :)

If I run into problems or have questions should I ask here or open a new thread? Want to make sure I'm following the rules.

Hope you've been nice to the postman. If he breaks your jumper thingy, it'll be another week of two of agonizing wait. Did you give him a Christmas card this year? He he ...
