Are you paranoid about connecting your Wii U to the internet? Or maybe you don't have access to it all the time? Here is a small solution
Get Connectify software. There is a trial version with limited functions but will do the job. I actually use the paid version, though.
Start your Connectify and setup a wireless connection.
Choose "No Internet Sharing".
Open a CMD and type in "ipconfig" (without quotes, of course)
Note down you pc ip address.
Now follow @ikarius031's Guide: https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutoria...server-loadiine-homebrew-launcher-etc.424948/
Profit

PS: I have near perfect boot rate sucess and I'm using a Wii U on the latest software.

or, if you have a second router you can connect PC and Wii U to it without connect it to the telephone line (local wlan)

@Seita, using connectify as of a few minutes ago and seems to be working great. Pro Max license only $12.75. Excellent tutorial. Thanks

Or, use a fake DNS address so that you will only access your local network and not internet. Been doing that from day 1 and no issue.

Instead of Connectify, I just use Windows hostednetwork. It's fairly easy to set up too.

Just open cmd with admin rights and enter this:
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=”Network Name” key=”Password"

Then whenever you want to load hax, run this batch script as an admin:

echo off
netsh wlan start hostednetwork
ipconfig
netsh wlan show hostednetwork
start C:\xampp\xampp-control.exe
pause
netsh wlan stop hostednetwork

Basically it starts the network and opens xampp (of you're using that anyway), loads ipconfig so you can grab your IP address, then waits for you to press a key to close it. It's fairly simple but I've found it handy to have on my tablet ^^

I don't understand if I'm doing this guide, or that guide correctly?

Nothing seems to be working for me. I mean, I can get the loadiine.ovh method working no problem, but self-hosting seems to be getting me nowhere.

[Edit] To avoid going off topic, I'll ask about these problems I'm having in the other thread!

Can you do that with a wired connection? I'm on a desktop and my U is wired.

I just use an old router. Connect my WiiU to it, plug in raspberry pi running my server setup. Voila! Near 100% success rate. No Internet connection necessary.

Whats the problem with TubeHax DNS?

 

[knm]

I'm little new on this, but I have a question, Can I use the Wired USB ethernet adapter connect from Wii U to PC by using the crossover cable? Or do I have to use the Wired USB Ethernet adapter connect to the router by using the ethernet straight cable?

 

[biodante]

Awesome, dude, this method is what I was looking, be able to not connect to the internet and avoid any updates (of course is more time consuming but gets the job done quick). Also, there a few free alternative to conectify, I used baidu wifi and worked first try, so for those that want to try out, google conectify alternatives (i did the process using windows 10 on a tablet by the way)
