1. You WILL need a reader at least for the first use;
2. Download and extract DSLinux for MMD/MMP to your CF;
3. Insert the CF in MMD, insert MMD in the SLOT-2, insert MML in SLOT-1;
4. Boot DSLinux.nds and when asked for username & password input "root" (username) and "uClinux" (password);
5. You'll need to host your file somewhere - I recommend using a small HTTP server installed on your PC;
6. Use this guide to convert your WFC USB adapter into a Access Point:
http://scdev.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5262
7. Use this guide to establish WiFi on in DSLinux:
http://www.dslinux.org/wiki/Using_DSLinux#Wireless_Networking
8. Use this command to download a file in DSLinux:
| Quote: |
| retawq --download=<fileurlhere> > <filename here> |
9. Use this guide to manage files on your CF:
http://www.dslinux.org/wiki/Using_DSLinux#File_Management
A really messy method but it works ...

Or someone could write an FTP server for the DS.
It's not hard to do, just parse text and obey the commands (you only need to implement about 10 to make it functional). Then go to your PC, use your favorite FTP client, and voila.
I'm surprised people are writing IM clients, mail clients, PDA software, and still no ftp (which you can do in less than 1K lines of code).

Haha! :D
Anyways, I was thinking about this too. I was even thinking of DS adapter developers (like the SuperCard / M3 / EZ) implementing them into the adapter's firmware. But then again, 512KB may not be enough ...

Hmm, we might see an FTP client at the Neoflash contest? No one have made it yet anyway, so it would make a nice APP!!!!!! ( omg, sorry I had to )

Hi,
just to let you know... I have a half-ready ftp/telnet server for the DS which I'm going to release this week. It's designed to be linkable to homebrew code, and the main purpose is to aid the development cycle (compile, upload via FTP, reboot via telnet command, rinse & repeat). But there'll be an example application which will act as a standalone ftp client/server, as well.
The stub server I have right now works well with command-line ftp clients as well as RBrowser on my Mac. Some kinks still need to be ironed out, though.
Requirements, of course: Wifilib and FAT lib.
Regards,
Bj?rn

Awwww, I was planning to write an FTP server myself. Looking forward to yours, bjoern :D

FTP would be great :) :)
A generic URL downloader would also be nice..

That would be HTTP though. I've been thinking about that (esp since it's not that easy to set up an FTP server on a Windows machine, and everyone has a web server nowadays). Let's do the FTP stuff first, though.
Regards,
Bj?rn

I'm working on a ftp client.. But it's one of those things on my To Code list.
