Re: Wii SSH isn't working



Hi,

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

I have an update after trying this which I am even more confused by. I
tried to remove all the wifi settings I'd configured in the Wii System
Menu and reboot into NetBSD after reading the last email on this
thread. I am now seeing that the wifi interface bwi0 is no longer
listed in ifconfig (and of course, as a result there is no internet
connectivity anymore). dmesg | grep bwi gives me the following:
bwi0 at sdmmc1 function 1: Broadcom Wireless
bwi0: autoconfiguration error: no BBP id for device id 0x044b

This error is persistent across reboots, reimaging the SD card and
re-setting-up the drivers and wpa_supplicant with the tar link, and
even after re-adding my network configuration in the Wii system menu
and getting a successful connection test there.

I am worried about bricking my Wii if I do the wrong kind of system
reset but presumably something needs to be reset that hasn't been,
since it was working before. I am perplexed about how the Wii System
Menu can interact with NetBSD in this way at all though. I also don't
know what BBP is -- so I have a lot to learn.
I have previously installed: IOS v50, Systemmenu v385, Priiloader
v0.10.0 (r0x02b70b36). I believe that my Wii is on a pretty old
version of system menu and of Priiloader but it seems like the setup I
have is all versions which are comparably old to each other. I could
upgrade it all if that would help but I'm not sure it would be worth
the effort.

Thanks,
Anne
