Hacking Noob question about updating gateway 3ds

[gemartic]

Hello everybody!

I want to update my gateway to the newest gateway firmware.

I am now in version 4.5.0. and my gateway version is 7.1.0-16e.

I want to know that do i need to use wifi-connection to update something (because long time ago when I setup first time my gateway I needed to update emunand with wifi).

I think it would be great to have a thread where you could find guide to update gateways firmware.

Thank you in advance!

Extract the latest launcher.dat to your 3DS's SD card (The latest is version 3.2.1 ULTRA)
Enter gateway mode (Make sure its your emunand)
Enable wifi and update using the system settings app (again, making sure you're in gw mode.. check for GW3D before the version number)

So do I need to use Blue card at all???

Since you're on 4.5.0 and you already have all your stuff set up you don't need to (I assume you're already launching gateway from DS profile mode in system settings)
