works, but as I said, some files can't be properly downloaded from the Switch. It's a known issue though.
Why though?! This to me seems unacceptable. Something as simple as just transferring some files over the wire or over the air should just work! Maybe something newer and fresher is in order. You'd still use it even if it wasn't ftp right? As long as it worked and had a server/client for all the platforms you care about right? I already have to do basically this functionality for my WiFi Streaming Backup Loader™ (lol the ™) It could have a simple any file transfer feature as well! I probably wouldn't run into that particular known issue, i'll run into other ones instead lol, but I'll solve them! :D

Make sure that your Switch is connected to the same wifi that your pc is.

On your Switch: Go to settings, internet, scroll down to find the ip

On your pc FTP client type the ip into the ip box (###.####.#.##) put 0.0.0.0 into the username box and 5000 into the port box. It should connect.

By using the latest FTP release it should work both ways too :3
