Re: Wii SSH isn't working



I found a workaround for the issue but neglected to mention it here;

Clearing the wifi settings in the system OS settings seems to allow
netbsd's wifi to work perfectly - I guess the fact that netbsd is
directly driving the hardware as opposed to utilizing IOS leads to some
conflict?
