[Tutorial] How to Go Online After Nintendo WFC Shutdown

[Ozan]

Due to the Nintendo WFC Shutdown, we are no longer able to battle friends online, access leaderboards and rankings, etc.
However, thanks to MrBean35000vr, Wiimm, and Leseratte, we can now do those things once again, with the Wiimmfi Patcher. The Wiimmfi Patcher enables online functionality by modifying the server address so that it connects to the Wiimmfi servers.

Instructions

Step 1: Click here and download the Wiimmfi Patcher.

(In case you already have a program that can unarchive files, skip Steps 2 & 3)

Step 2: Download B1 Free Archiver or Winrar.

Step 3: Open the archive with one of the programs listed in Step 2.

Step 4: Read the README file that comes with the archive.

Alternate Instructions
(For Those Who Don't Want to Use the Homebrew Channel)

Step 1: Turn on your Wii.

Step 2: Go to the Wii Options Menu>Wii Settings>Internet>Connection Settings>Connection 1, 2, or 3>Change Settings

Step 3: Scroll to the left until you see "Auto-Obtain DNS," click on No, and click the Advanced Settings box.

Step 4: Click on Primary DNS (not Secondary) and type the following into the box and click OK when you're done:

176.9.146.163

Step 5: Test any game that has online functionality and... You're done!

Error Codes

You may receive an error code while connecting, but don't fret. Here are the list of error codes and what they mean:

23901 : Server closed because of maintenance
23902 : Too many users, try later

I honestly don't know. As soon as we get more people to play on the custom servers, then we'll know for sure.

there are already people on brawl wifi on the server, however, that wiimmfi patcher download app, ONLY allows wifi play, it BLOCKS mods such as custom music, they say if you want custom music, you can only do it on MKW and using that CTGP channel that they are despritely looking for downloads for so they can up their CTGP numbers because what i said about MK8 making those numbers die came true and they got butthurt and banned me from their chat

if we want mods, we will use the USB loader patcher, wait til theres a riivo update to properly load alt dols (using USB as the SD to enable the use of the overated mods on an unlocked SD), or use the code me and doc kirby made (USA only) and deal with code limit bypassing as some requirement standard now
