Getting started

What you need

You need a console that runs homebrew (XEX) applications, a working network connection, and a PC on the same home network. If you use a USB Ethernet adapter, keep its driver loaded as usual. For the speeds shown on this site, use NetUsb360 (measured with release 1.1, published as CUsbEnet 1.1).

FastFTP360 is experimental homebrew. Read Safety before using it on files you care about.

Quick start

TODO

The only release on GitHub so far, 0.4.1 (“FastFTP 0.4.1”), has no download files attached yet. It also predates the rename to FastFTP360, which the changelog lists under “Unreleased”, so files from that release may still use the old FastFTP names (FastFTP.xex, FastFTP-PC.exe, FastFTP.ini, FastFTP.log). The FastFTP360-<version>.zip in step 1 does not exist until a new release is published.

1. Download FastFTP360-<version>.zip from the Releases page.

2. Copy FastFTP360.xex to its own folder on the Xbox, for example Hdd1:\Apps\FastFTP360\.

3. Start it from Aurora, XeXMenu or your usual launcher. Do not add it to launch.ini: it is an app, not a plugin.

4. The app opens on the FTP server tab. Press A to start the server.

5. In your FTP client, connect with:

   Setting	Value
   Host	The IP address shown at the top right of the Xbox screen
   Port	21
   Protocol	Plain FTP (no TLS)
   Transfer mode	Passive
   User name / password	xboxftp / xboxftp

6. When you are done, press B to stop the server, then Back to exit to the dashboard.

FastFTP360-PC.exe in the zip is only for the network test. You don’t need it for FTP.
