– For Route C, there are some extra steps
– First: set both Wii Us up to connect via Wired Connection
– When the test fails, cancel out but save the connection
– Go into the settings for the connection and change the IP to 192.168.000.001 (or 192.168.000.002 on the second Wii U), Subnet Mask to 255.255.255.000 and Default Gateway to 192.168.000.050

– Set Primary DNS to 1.0.0.0
– Save the settings
Note that to activate LAN battle, you have to hold down L, R & down on the d-pad on the title screen.
