# DS SaveGameManager
In order to use DS SaveGameManager, do the following:
# Step 1: Set up a WEP Access Point
Either connect to one, or set it up on the PC. Keep it
as WEP, because the DS Lite does not allow you to connect to
WPA/WPA2 or newer WiFi hotspots.
I use an Android Phone for this, and that phone is
disposable/safe.
Note down the IP of the computer that is going to act
as the FTP server. It should usually be in the
`192.168.43.0/24` subnet. Android has a few FTP servers
already, and you could completely do this on the phone.
# Step 2: Connect the DS to this Network
Use any game with internet connection (Pokemon) to set
up the `Nintento WFC`. Although it won't work a 100% because
the services are down, the TCP connectivity via WiFi will
happen. You should notice a device called `NintendoDS`
being able to connect to the hotspot.
# Step 3: Set up the Dumper on the Flash Cart
This section assumes using the *DSTWO*.
Open the `SGM` folder.
Edit the line which reads and set it to the IP of the FTP server:
```
ftp_ip = 192.168.43.1
```
Set Username/Password to `guest` or as appropriate.
Move the `SGM` folder to `_DSTWOPLUG` folder to the SD Card
used on the DSTWO. Move the `SaveGame_Manager.ini` file in it to
the root of the SD Card.
# Step 3: Run a FTP Server
If you are already running a server on Android, skip this step.
Here is how you run the FTP Server on a PC.
```bash
cd SGM-FTP
pip install -r requirements.txt
python ds_ftp.py
```
# Step 4: Run the Dumper from the DS.
Run the dumper and enjoy SaveGame backups.
