[edit] Media
.
[edit] Download and Install Instructions
Extract the file DSFTP.nds into the apps folder of your card.
[edit] Basic Usage
When you start the app it will auto connect using the Wifi settings in your DS and confirm the IP address at the bottom of the screen. If a config file is not found then it creates and displays a 'default' user and password that you can use to access the DS. Use your favourite FTP program to connect to the IP address and authenticate with the username and password. You can then copy to/from and delete files from your card.
[edit] Common Problems and Known Issues
- Acquiring DHCP - Could not connect. Please restart.
Many Homebrew Wifi apps can't connect to Access Points using DHCP. The work around is to use a fixed IP address. For more details see Common Homebrew Wifi Problems.
- Seems to crash at the end of a long upload
- Upload speeds can be very slow (<1kb/sec)
[edit] Additional Information
[edit] How to create a config
- create a text file called 'ftp.conf' in '(root)/data/settings/' File name and location is critical
- Using a text editor (eg. notepad) add the following text to the file:
user joe
pass whatever
root /
home /
write true
boot true
end user
- Change the user and pass to one of your choosing
- Save the file
