      Hmmm, unfortunately Wi-Fi is a must. The only things that I could recommend is
      If you have a hotspot on your cell phone that allows you to transform your data into a Wi-Fi connection try using that.
      Or, bring your wii over to a friend's house and do it there

    For anyone who sees this, I was following step by step and connected to internet, but when I loaded back into cios installer to install over the 250 section instead of 249, an error message comes up saying "net_limit" and the 250 is covered with the red markings instead saying failed. Any help would be much appreciated.

    I have a few questions.
    1.can I have USB loader gx and run wads? Because from what I understand you can only have one or the other.
    2. How do you put back ups on a fat 32 drive? Because fat 32 only allows you to put a file up to 4 gb on at a time and a lot of wii games are over 4gb?

    • @BelowAverageGaming
      @BelowAverageGaming  2 года назад +2

      I'm not sure where you got your information from, but both your questions are false
      USB loader is a separate application, wads are a separate thing as well
      I have a 128 GB SD card (fat 32) in my wii and Wii U right now
