You can connect your Wii U to Pretendo using one of 2 methods. Each method has benefits and drawbacks, which will be described in their respective sections.
- [Inkay (homebrew - recommended)](#inkay)
- [SSSL (hackless)](#sssl)
- [Inkay (homebrew)](#inkay)
Once you have selected a connection method and set up your Wii U, see ["PNID Setup"](#pnid-setup).
If you have save data from a Nintendo Network ID you would like to move to your Pretendo Network ID, follow [this](#transferring-save-data-to-your-pretendo-network-account) section.
# SSSL
**Pros:**
- Does not require homebrew
- Very easy to setup
**Cons:**
- Only a subset of services are supported
- Lacks additional features and patches
- May not function under certain ISP related conditions (self-hosted DNS tool is in development)
- Requires changing network settings to disconnect
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.
To connect using SSSL, open `System Settings > Internet > Connect to the Internet`. Open the settings for your network connection and open `DNS`. Select `Don't Auto-obtain`. Enter `88.198.140.154` as the `Primary DNS`. Enter another public DNS server address as the `Secondary DNS`, such as `8.8.8.8` (Google Public DNS) or `1.1.1.1` (Cloudflare-DNS). You should now be able to setup and login to your Pretendo Network ID as normal.
To disconnect from Pretendo Network either remove the `Primary DNS` address or change back to `Auto-obtain`.

# PNID Setup
After installing Pretendo, you must register a Pretendo Network ID (PNID). There is currently two ways of creating a PNID: Creating an account with the website and linking it, or creating it on your Wii U.
