User guide
How does it work
WiiBServer is a simple application that utilizes socket programming to function as a HTTP/1.0 server for testing networking on the Wii. When launched, the server initializes the socket subsystem, sets up the necessary parameters, and waits for incoming connections.
The IP of the Wii is displayed on screen for clients to connect. The server runs on two threads, one for handling button inputs and the other for accepting connections and processing them.
However, the server may experience freezing or dropping connections after a few requests, especially when loading multiple resources for a single html page or when requesting large images.
How to use
Once started, press the A button to start the "accepting" thread. Then press B to stop listening.
Browse from a web client (use an URL that refers to a file since directory listing is not yet supported).
