Hello again. I just wanted to update this by saying that I managed to get my game backed up using Marc's Slot-2 version and an ancient G6Lite I had laying around. Thanks, Marc!

I've tried using multiple FTP servers. So far, I've tried: smallFTP 3cdaemon a macbook Pro with os x built in ftp server functionality enabled With every one of those setups, I was able to connect to the FTP server from a different computer using the same credentials that I was specifying in save manager's ini, but unable to get save manager to connect. I am at a complete loss as to why I can't get this working. I can also see that there are other posts here saying the same thing. There are even a couple where people are reporting that it was working before, but failing, with the same error message that I am getting, now. That is why I'm hoping that maybe some of those that have it working over wifi can shed any light on what I may be doing wrong. I think the other thing that might be helpful would be if the author could patch the program to spit more verbose debug info out to the screen, or (better yet) to a file. This way, we would know more about what is going on. Also, now that I think about it, I might try to do a packet capture on the FTP server machine tonight, and see if the NDSlite running save manager is trying to contact it at all (I have yet to see anything in the FTP server logs, but maybe the packet capture will tell me more). Anyhow, once again, thanks for any help you can provide.

Hello, and thank you for writing this tool. Unfortunately, I am running into the same issue that a couple of other people are running into here. I can initiate the process, it connects to the access point, but then it cannot connect to my FTP server. I get the same "connectconnectconnect" message that the others are getting, followed by an "ERROR: FTP server missing" when it finally throws in the towel. I am trying to get this up and running on an acekard2i, and I am fairly sure that everything seems fine on my end. I can view my wireless AP's connections page and see that the DSlite is correctly connecting to the AP, and being assigned an IP. I can also login to my FTP server from two other computers using the same credentials that I am putting in the save manager ini file. I am at a complete loss as to why the tool cannot connect to the FTP server. Can anyone who has this up and running on an acekard2i let me know what FTP server they are using, and maybe post an exact copy of their ini file? Thanks for any help you can provide.
