So I'm finally done with my guide for you, I'm really sorry it took so long... A lot happening right now... But yes here it is, hope it works for you:


1. Step: Remove everything you had installed, I mean the RiiConnect24/ WiiLink channel etc. Not Homebrew ofc, we still need that!

2. Step: Download the offical WiiLink Patcher for your OS, i'm using Windows so yeh... I put my Version below, it worked for me so it might work for you too.

3. Step: Open the patcher, select your stuff like the SD Card ofc and then the apps you want to have. I selected a normal Wii, not vWii! I also added the Kirby TV Channel, but thats not nessesary.

4. Step: Wait... The patcher will do it's Magicccccccc...
!Attention!: I personally removed the other wads I had in my folder so its not that complicated to select the important ones.

5. Step: take your SD Card and put it into your Wii, turn it on go to the Homebrew Channel and select your Wad Installer.

6. Step: Browse through your SD Card to get to the "wads" folder and select the nessesary wads the patcher intalled.

7. Step: After installing everything successfully, go to the Home Menu and restart your Wii. After the restart, navigate to the Wii Settings and reconnect your Wifi. (If your Wii can be trusted then skip this section)

8. Step: Check the contract/contact section (You also might access this part through the WiiConnect24 section, didn't work for me tho) and access it, it'll ask you if you wanna use the Wii-Shop-Channel etc. Go on "Yes".
Then it sould go to the Terms and Use part.
(If there is the Term... of Nintendo, DO NOT ACCEPT! I'm not sure what could go wrong in the time of today but we better not accept that.)
If you get the RiiConnect24/ WiiLink Terms then, Congrats you made it!

9. Step: Enjoy your new Wii Possabilities! :yaywii:

Riiconnect24/WiiLink24 won't change the Wii Font or what it will saying, just the Use of Terms

Please make a new post if you want more attention directed to your issues in the future. Anyways, have you tried changing your region to, say, US or UK? (if it isnt already)

I've went through everything again: Reinstalled WiiLink and everything. But it says "WiiConnect24 is not available anymore" or smth like that when I go to the settings to accep the policy

this means your country is not supported by WiiLink, reinstalling everything isn't gonna help, change it to another country

    @K3Nv2, afaik yeah but I also don't think that it runs on home grade routers like openwrt/dd-wrt does. OPNsense runs on full-on x86 PC hardware
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Sadly openwrt seems to be dying for support unless it's just. Anew name
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Like made by the same devs different architecture
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    idk, I mean it had a new release back in March https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/releases
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Not sure how recent hardware it supports though
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I mean for 1st party routers iirc linksys use to support it
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    ahhhh that I have no idea
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    pretty cool though if so
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Or from what ive heard ways to set custom imgs for 1st party routers so locked down now days
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    OPNsense VM and specs and specs of system it's running on. https://imgur.com/a/S9wgGUD
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I've turned more features on in OPNsense lately and it's getting kind of high on RAM usage, I see. Probably bump that up to 4GB soon
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I wanna make a 8core router with support for 20gbps doesn't even sound that silly lol
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I only have 1 gig internet but internally I have 10 gig connectivity for everything on my lan lol
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    fiber connection from my desktop PC back to my core network switch
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    2 port HPE SFP+ PCIE NIC in my desktop and all of my servers
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    silly shit
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    eventually this desktop is going to act as a server too, just for the hell of it. Because this PC is WAY fucking overkill for how little I use it.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    And once I do that, my desktop OS that I interact with is just going to be a virtual machine and use GPU passthrough to connect everything
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Send it to me ffs
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    No because it's my desktop lol
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    The most use this PC is getting right now is 979 Chrome tabs open right now
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    This is my desktop there are many like it but it is mine alone
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Enabled PPPoE on router now no wifi connection lul
    Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy: F
