Blocking online updates and play online with CCProxy

MattKimura · Dec 7, 2015

@Cyan Simple question, can I use this proxy temporary to boot up the kernel exploit, then close out the program and my Wii U is no longer connected to the internet? Or do I have to leave my computer on as long as I'm using my Wii U?

Overall, I'm gonna buy a USB to ethernet adapter, while also using tubehax dns so I can temporarily be online just to boot the exploit.

yes, that's what I'm doing.
And that's why I prefer using CCproxy, I can manage its state (on/off) and filtering in real time without having to go to the WiiU settings to disable it.

Your idea of using USB to ethernet, it's just to be able to disconnect internet?
CCproxy is enough, just a click on computer. But like you said you need your computer powered to enable the proxy when you need internet access, while the USB adapter can connect to your router without the need of a PC.
personally, I prefer CCproxy as you can have internet access while filtering URLs.

Not all programs are using the proxy option even if set in the WiiU settings, like I said Netflix don't need it. But launching netflix needs internet access (all application launching are connecting to account.nintendo.net to check something with the server, probably if you have the license or for statistics purpose), then you can close the proxy and netflix will work while keeping all other WiiU network activity blocked.
netflix is the only app I found that bypass the proxy, so don't worry. CCproxy blocks all other system menu and apps access.

But like I said too, if you use CCproxy, don't remove the filters thinking you are still safe because you set up tubehax in wiiU dns.
When using the proxy option, the DNS is not used.
use one or the other, not both, and you will be fine.

if you want to use both, you need to use CCProxy 8 build 2015-10-09 (or newer), and set the DNS IP inside the CCProxy filter menu, not in the wiiu.

Does this tut still apply for 5.5.1? Thanks.

Edit: Guess I meant to ask, has anything changed as far as the address list is concerned?

CCProxy filter to block updates but allows eShop access

Code:

//         CCProxy filter - eShop access
//
//  This filter's rules allow Eshop access with NNU patcher,
//  but block NUS update servers to prevent system updates.
//
//  You can also set Tubehax DNS IP (107.211.140.65) into CCproxy
//  filter's rule page, in the DNS field, for additional security.
//
// **********************************************************
// ** never block this, needed to launch apps (like netflix, etc.)
//account.nintendo.net;
//
// ** same URLs than the ones blocked by Tubehax DNS
cbvc.cdn.nintendo.net; // Browser version check, used to block the browser until a system update is performed
nus.cdn.shop.wii.com;            // filtered by tubehax dns
nus.wup.shop.nintendo.net;      // Ping Update servers - check if server is available before updating
nus.cdn.wup.shop.nintendo.net;  // Nintendo update server
nus.c.shop.nintendowifi.net;     // filtered by tubehax dns
// ** Additional URLs NOT filtered by tubehax dns
nus.cdn.c.shop.nintendowifi.net; // another NUS server
tagaya.wup.shop.nintendo.net; // update environment check. Verify if there are new Title's updates to ask for update when launching a game. Blocking this lets you run the game without update warning even if there's a new update available.

excuse me for bumping old thread, but this doesn't seem to work with eshop
system updates are blocked alright, but cannot access eshop as well
