    Hi, I have recently lost my broadband so am back to using a 56k dialup connection. I use a USB WiFi adapter in “Access Point” mode on my laptop to broadcast my connection to my other laptop and my Wii. It’s slow, but it works….

    After finding what settings seem to work best on the USB adapter, I’m able to connect the Wii to the internet this way (Shop Channel and Internet Channel work… slowly….), but the HomeBrew Browser is having problems….

    It starts out connecting ok, and gets down to:

    Requesting repositories list … Repositories list received.

    Then it gets stuck on:

    Requesting Homebrew List… Failed to receive Homebrew List.
    Requesting Homebrew List…Failed to receive Homebrew List.
    Requesting Homebrew List…Failed to receive Homebrew List.
    Requesting Homebrew List…Failed to receive Homebrew List.
    Requesting Homebrew List…Couldn’t receive Homebrew list… returning you to HBC

    At that point it actually freezes, then I press the RESET button on the Wii and it says:

    Homebrew Browser shutting down…

    And it stays frozen there until I hold down the power button….

    Anyway, the freezing aside (that’s not really important to me), I THINK the problem might simply be that it is “timing out” when it’s downloading the Homebrew List — I can see the net traffic downloading data when it’s trying to receive the list, but perhaps it’s downloading so slowly that HBB thinks it’s just not working, so it just gives up and says “failed.” Then eventually the connection just gives up even trying it….

    That’s just a guess…. Wold there be a way to increase the length of time it will try to download the Homebrew List before it thinks it failed? Because it’s definitely trying to download it, after the Repositories List is successfully downloaded…..

      I tried a couple more times today, and now it’s doing something a bit different.

      Now after it says “returning you to HBC” it pauses a few seconds then says:

      DEBUG: fwrite error: [1] Not owner

      then it does successfully exit to HBC

      I tried renaming the listv036.txt file in my homebrew_browser directory, and after trying to run HBC again (with same results and error), I have a new listv036.txt file that is 138.4KB

      And now that fwrite error seems to have gone away, but it is still successfully exiting to the HBC without freezing now.

      Though HBB still won’t really work for me….

      I did try running HHB from a separate SD card with an old, separate install of HHB, but I get the same results… and the fwrite error appeared again….

      *shrug*

    Same here, i sometimes get *failed to receive homebrew list* i formated the sd card but no luck, maybe an known issue??

    BTW @teknecal.. i have a dumb question to ask, sometimes when im in the homebrew browser i hear a different song in the background havent heard it since, i actually like the other one i heard, well my question is, is it posible of changin from the current background song to the other one?? sorry couldnt been more specific..

    • teknecal says:

      Hi, there is only 1 song that comes with the HBB, it’s found in the homebrew_browser directory called loop.mod. It sounds like you might have your own background music? If you remove loop.mod I believe HBB should re-download it for you (IIRC).

      • xGRUMPYx says:

        @teknecal.. naw dude, this may sound stupid but the other song i heard its the same as the original but with the beeps only, lol ill try to make a video of it if i ever hear that song again, sounds weird i know.
