Would the user with IP 173.17.17.42...

If the user is like almost anyone around, he might have dynamic IP, thus not knowing his IP and then might never know we're talking about him.
They might just add the time around they received the debug info.

as you can see with a simple whois the user most likely lives in virgina, minnesota, usa and uses mediacom communications as his provider. mediacom is a cable provider and most cable providers in the usa assingn a static ip address to each of its customers.

[kedest]

perhaps an admin should look at this
they can see IP's ofcourse and send the user a PM

 

[OSW]

Found one match of person posting on the forum with that IP. I'm not 100% sure if it's him but I will PM him to ask.

I won't say who it is, incase I breach his privacy....

 

[FRanatic]

LOL, Team Twiizers are actually being helped big time by the 'pirating bastards' @ gbatemp...
Oh irony.
(I'm not implying anything nor accusing anyone here)

I'll get to running the check when I get hoem tonight. The statistics posted at hackmii are not as high as I expected them to be. Come on sceners !!!

Also done

Thank GOD (s)he got static IP or didn't rebooted his/her router.

have you read the rest of the stuff i wrote about us providers and how ips are assigned most of the time by us cable providers? doesn't seem so. btw. i had a "semi" static ip as well over here in germany with my old provider primacom. although it's pretty unusual for a german provider, they assigned a ip adress to the mac-adress of the cable modem and that's how it is done most of the times in the states.

 

[joda]

I work tech support for the 2nd largest ISP of Sweden and we don't give out static ip:s by default, but people still get to have more or less the same ip for a long time unless they turn of their equipment. This since DCHP standard stipulates that a client should get the ip they request, if it's available. Most dhcp clients request their last ip.

Most of our DSL-modems, and all of our ethernet gateways, are bridged and the staticity of the ip is thus dependent on the computer or router you've plugged in, and not locked to the modem. Of course though, because of redistribution of IPs between the different scopes of our net, depending on demand, you will never be able to keep the same IP for eternity.

I've done my part now just to wait patiently for the realese of Bootmii

 

[muzz]

I did it, for whatever reason it was core dumping on me and I had to use ARC to get it to work properly. Thanks Twiizers!

are you on 3.4 wii?

 

[muzz]

3.2, had CORP installed, preloader 2.8 and a custom splash. It would run but would crash when initializing the network. I saw some instances where it was unable to resolve the hostname when it gave the error then dumped. (could've been a LAN issue here) I couldn't tell if it was my wii connect settings because I have the broadband and sometime use the wireless, (I tried different config variations....plugged adapter into different port, on and off my usb hub etc...) I think it was hanging up on network init, it would dump during the init or after when returning to HBC (app wasn't coded with a recovery routine when it didn't get what it expected??). Also, I was using a 4GB card formatted with the panasonic utility. I don't think the wii or elf liked the card because I got the malformed error in HBC using that card. I went to a 2GB card after ARC ran from the homebrew channel and not preloader and it finally worked. I didn't effectively narrow the cause down. I troubleshot in a haphazard manner. Something tells me if I left it all as is and used the 2GB card to begin with it would've been fine. Too many variables to pinpoint it and I seem to be the only person who reported this issue. Most likely an isolated thing.

Done it here, on my Wii, plus two friends'. They didn't understand, but they said ok.

Good luck Team Twiizers!

Maybe I'm stupid, but what is the easiest way to run the ELF file when you have HBC (1.01 I think) and Homebrew Launcher, neither of which seem to like ELF files. I tried the ELF to DOL convertor and it won't run.

Thanks for the help so I can lend a hand to Twiizers

Just rename the file to boot.dol
