yeah but it was also blocking eshop and internet access on the switch.
I've setup fiddler proxy and now have what i want basically, can still update/buy games, and don't get the sys update nag. Thanks Wizz
Looks like it's being blocked.
Just opened Eshop and i'm getting a system update prompt even with fiddler, whats the new address's to block?
sun.hac.lp1.d4c.nintendo.net
beach.hac.lp1.eshop.nintendo.net
So for all you that don't know how to use ping and want an equally easy non destructive way of testing to see if your router is blocking the update server you can just enter this url into any browser behind your router:
https://sun.hac.lp1.d4c.nintendo.net/
If it is being blocked you will get this:
If it is NOT being blocked you will get this:
If you get this it means you are accessing the http page, the Switch uses https. Some routers do not block https.

Have you tried updating your router's firmware?
Unfortunately it seems your router does not support blocking https sites. New firmware might change this.
You can try entering sun.hac.lp1.d4c.nintendo.net into the KEYWORD filter, but it may not work.
You can use:
Fiddler proxy - http://www.telerik.com/fiddler
SimpleDNS - http://simpledns.com/
MaraDNS - http://maradns.samiam.org/
These need to be run on a computer anytime you want internet access for the switch. (This is the method I use, way more advanced control than my routers.)
Also, your router is the one with the cable modem built in. It doesn't support custom firmware such as Tomato or DD-WRT which have more advanced options than the consumer version of Asus-WRT.
You can also bridge your router to basically turn it into just a modem, then buy a more advanced router.
The problem with just blocking an IP address is that it can change at any time.
It's not being blocked on either test.Remember me, lol my router does keyword blocking, I was updating the key word list when I noticed this post ^ I took two screen shots just to make sure this was right..
why not use "
TitleDNS "The Netherlands" (81.4.127.20) :(20 ms) Website Charge (Apache2) :
TitleDNS "Los Angeles" (168.235.92.108) :(202 ms)"
?
oh, I thought they would block ninty servers. therefore they work flawlessly on 3DS, too.Those are for blocking Wii U updates.

They should be updated to block Switch updates. Maybe they will. It's still better to block updates via your own means. Public DNSes will eventually go down.
Actually no it won't, not on 2.0 anyway. It will inform you of an update but you still have to tell it to update. Rebooting clears the nag.once you leave wifi on and accidentally connect to a free wifi you are out of luck anyway. the switch will grab an update in no time.
You cannot ping https://sun.hac.lp1.d4c.nintendo.net. You can ping sun.hac.lp1.d4c.nintendo.net but that will only tell you if your router is blocking the name for http traffic which it should be capable of. I made the suggestion of using ping before I realized people were having problems with blocking https.Well trying on my pc to ping https://sun.hac.lp1.d4c.nintendo.net/ i get a privacy error first, i have to tell it to connect to the site and then i get access denied cc problem, so it seems im going to have tot just turn off wifi permanently until i buy a new router
Also this is what i have in my keyword blocker
autm.hac.lp1.d4c.nintendo.net
sun. .net
beach. .eshop .net
superfly. .net
With of course all the filled in text like the first one
Bummer... What model router do you have, you might be able to just use custom firmware instead of buying a new one.results in Access Denied CC Problem
