{: .notice--info}

Zauważ, że jeżeli twój dostawca internetu lub urządzenia zarządzające Twoją siecią lokalną blokują użycie niestandardowych serwerów DNS, str2hax nie zadziała. W takim przypadku, [wybierz inny exploit](get-started).
{: .notice--warning}

str2hax is an exploit for the Wii that is triggered by loading the Wii's End User License Agreement. It requires nothing but an Internet connection that lets you change the DNS on your Wii.

#### What you need

* A Wii with an Internet connection

#### Instructions

##### Section I - Connecting

This exploit requires you to set your DNS in order to connect to a server that contains the exploit.

1. Go to `Wii Options`. ![Wii Options](/images/RiiConnect24/Internet_1.png)

1. Select `Confirm`, then select `Save`. ![Save DNS](/images/RiiConnect24/Internet_10.png)
1. Select `OK` to perform a connection test. ![Connection Test](/images/RiiConnect24/Internet_11.png) ![Connection Test Successful](/images/RiiConnect24/Internet_12.png)
   - If the connection test was successful, select `No` to skip the Wii System Update.
   - If it fails with error code `521xx`, please verify that you have entered the DNS correctly.
   - If it is still unsuccessful, please [use another exploit](get-started).

##### Section II - Triggering the Exploit

1. Go to the `Internet` section, then `User Agreements` or `Agreement/Contact`, then `Yes`.
1. Click on `Next`. You should be greeted with the following screen: ![str2hax EULA page](/images/str2hax/EULA.png)
1. Give the exploit 1-2 minutes to download (and don't press `I ACCEPT`/`I DO NOT ACCEPT`).
1. Once the exploit downloads, you will see a few text screens, then a mess of colors, then finally, the HackMii Installer. ![HackMii Installer scam screen](/images/hackmii/scam.png)

##### Common issues

If you get the normal User Agreements, your ISP blocks the use of custom DNS. Please [use another exploit](get-started).
{: .notice--warning}

If the HackMii Installer doesn't load after more than 2 minutes, or you receive an error like `Hanging.` or `ERROR! if_config (ret = ...)`, please restart your Wii and try again.
{: .notice--warning}

If you have installed a mod like CTGP Revolution or Project+, str2hax may load that instead. If it does, restart your Wii and try again without your SD card inserted.
