Alright everyone. This will be long and somewhat ramble-y, so I apologize in advance, and want to say that I appreciate any and all help that can be given.
So I recently set up Dolphin for my fiance. As I was browsing the Dolphin webpage I saw that you could now go on to the Wii Shopping channel! "WHATTTTT?!" I Said. I immediately set out to learn how to get this amazing emulator to do this wonderful feat. I downloaded 5.0-2874, so I KNOW the capability should be there.
I then followed the basic network setup listed here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?t...work_Guide. The one that the DEV team said to follow. I followed it to a T and nothing went wrong or abnormal while doing that.
I installed the newest version of my system menu from NUSD v1.9 (V513) onto dolphin, as well as the EULA (just in case?) which I accepted. I got the Mii Channel AND the shopping channel (both of which are newest versions for america) and launched the shop channel......Which brought me right back to the Wii Menu...."Weird" I thought. So I tried it with the Mii Channel to the exact same outcome. "Oh it must be cause I'm not connected to my internet through the system menu!" I then went in, connected it to my internet, and after doing so it said "System update is available" "Hey great, I saw them update in this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHJ0Nw20row), so I must be doing something righ...what the fuck is error 32004...."
I went in and pushed my MTU's to 1500, and I have stellar internet. NOTHING is working and allowing me to update or fix these problems. I went and did some digging (because I don't like asking for help) and got some indicators that maybe I need to set up a correct NAND path? "A...A what?!" Back to this page: https://dolphin-emu.org/docs/guides/nand-usage-guide/. Well that page was basically German to me, and I was unsure of what to do. "Oh, maybe I need to install this homebrew channel thing so I can follow the next steps...." to keep a long story short, after hours of tinkering, I learned that doesn't fucking work and probably will never.
In the Emulator, if you go to Config > Paths near the bottom it says Wii NAND Root.....WHERE DO I POINT THAT?! Do I need that for the channels/"update" to work?! DO I EVEN UPDATE?! I want to be able to go online and for those channels NOT to send me back to the Wii Menu. I know how to make a bigger SD card to mount inside of the emulator but that hasn't seemed to help.
Can SOMEONE please help me do this? What the HELL do I need to do? What am I doing wrong?!
tl;dr Channels aren't loading, need help
