HELP FOR FTP

[urbexed]

Hi everyone.

I'm making this post because I can't get an ftp connection to my Wii U

until now i had no problem to do it but now when i try to do it it doesn't want to connect and that from any ftp server/ wifi connection/ software to access ftp (Filezilla etc.)

I didn't touch the content of the memory card before I had the problem

I am in v5.5.5 (EU) cfw Aroma/Tiramisu

Thanks in advance for your answer

do you have the wps? I think it's a plugin for the home screen.

yes, but anyway even if I didn't have it that's not the problem.

even when I go through FTPiiu in tiramisu it doesn't work

I'm not sure then. my friend @Laf111 might have a suggestion. he's the dev behind the best ftp app.

Did you change anything at the network setup, like getting a new router or something?

Other than that I read between the lines that you're on Aroma, using the FTP plugin it provides? If so press (L), (DOWN) and (SELECT), then go to FTPiiU and note down the IP it tells you ("IP of your console is ABC.DEF.GHI.JKL. Port 21"). Double check this is the IP you try to connect to with the FTP clients.

Avez-vous changé quelque chose à la configuration du réseau, comme obtenir un nouveau routeur ou quelque chose ?

A part ça j'ai lu entre les lignes que tu es sur Aroma, en utilisant le plugin FTP qu'il fournit ? Si c'est le cas, appuyez sur (L), (DOWN) et (SELECT), puis allez sur FTPiiU et notez l'IP qu'il vous indique ("IP of your console is ABC.DEF.GHI.JKL. Port 21"). Vérifiez bien qu'il s'agit de l'adresse IP à laquelle vous essayez de vous connecter avec les clients FTP.

anothing to do with the plugin, no matter what homebrew I use, no way to make it work even if i go through tiramisu on an FTP homebrew

ok thanks

Hi,

Wrote you in the chat section !

So, again:

Did you change anything at the network setup, like getting a new router or something?

Is there a new router, a hardware firewall, a new switch has been added or, well, has anything changed at the LAN infrastructure?
I'm asking this cause when you say Wii U and PC software are exactly the same it must be something in between the two which is interrupting the connection. Like some (hardware) firewall.

nope, no change on the network side either, I have the problem on my different networks (4g, wifi etc)

And there was also nothing changed on the PC? So no "internet suite" installed, Windows Defender settings unchanged and so on? If so that's really weird...

Did you do this yet? Even if you changed nothing at the LAN infrastructure the Wii U might still have gotten another IP than in the past.

Windows Defender disabled and no firewall active (Avast free is enabled but it was already enabled last time when I used ftp)

I used FTPiiu before but it no longer worked (I used tiramisu each time to use ftp), and it was only after it no longer worked that I tried using plugin aroma

So you still didn't check that the IP is correct? You should really do this!

Technical explanation: Your router is giving out IP addresses to the clients (like your PC, the Wii U, your mobile phone, ...). Now these IP addresses are random (at least on old routers but let's not go too much into detail), so a client could get a different IP - suddenly, after months of having the same IP. That said: You could just try to connect to the wrong IP, so please, please double check it.
