# SSSL
**Pros:**
- Does not require homebrew
- Very easy to setup
**Cons:**
- Only a subset of services are supported
- Lacks additional features and patches
- Does not work on some ISPs
- Hard to switch on or off
SSSL is a (limited) hackless method of accessing most services by exploiting a bug in the Wii U's SSL module. All Nintendo Network games produced by Nintendo are supported by SSSL, as are the ***in-game*** Miiverse features. The main Miiverse app, in-game ***posting*** app, and any game which uses its own SSL stack (YouTube, WATCH_DOGS, etc.), are ***NOT*** supported by this method, as they are unaffected by the SSL exploit.
