yea 3dsnus wont even load and what site can i find the cia pack on also what dose the ladder mean
3dnus wouldn't load for you? Can you describe what happens? I just tried
this version and it's downloading just fine.
The "latter" means, of the list of two I mentioned, the former (1st in the list) and the latter (2nd in the list), I'm referring to the "ctrnand transfer pack" method, that is, you download a ctrnand transfer pack of the update, then flash it to your system using Decrypt9.
.... Wait a second, I just realized. A legacy page of the guide actually gives you that pack
and instructions how to do it. Here you go:

EDIT: Just in case you don't know how to download magnet links, you install something like
Deluge to torrent the download to your computer. The download is done when it says it's "Seeding," which means you're hosting it yourself.
