Check the encryption method on your wireless security. Nintendo likes TKIP and apparently hates AES. I had to switch the encryption before my Switch could connect - it's lousy because the PS4 seems to hate TKIP and has shoddy connection, so now I had to buy an ethernet cable to connect the PS4 and still have my Switch connect to my router.


The switch doesn't recognize tkip!
With aes the connection appears but not connect with the router!

There's hope for a Xenosaga port.

Do you know if it even connects to another router or is it a general problem?
Have you tried tethering from your smartphone and trying to connect to it?
Does it work? Can you connect to the internet this way?

Try resetting the internet connection on your Switch and restart the Switch if necessary, if it doesn't connect.

The problem could be related with the router!
I can connect with another routers, even with android.

I had this issue and it kept telling me to update. All i had to do was power off the switch, not sleep mode but fully off. After i turned it back on i was able to install update and connect

When I save the connection even if it's doesn't connect and back to Home menu, after some minutes it's work!

One of your errors is the same code they are giving 3DS who have been banned. If your ID as ever been used on a hack 3DS that just got banned, it may be the cause. Even if you don't have the 3DS anymore, I don't think it matters. Nintendo probably has a list of IDs and it most likely list any systems your ID has been used on.

That's the error I had in May. Power off and on or restart the Switch. It will then probably ask you to install an update. You can in most cases select no to it and the net connection should start working again.

    @K3Nv2 what was your ps4 situation

    did you always have a ps4 you never updated

    or were you able to get new ps4 tracking it \
    as soon as the hack was announced

    or did you have to find a used one with the lower firm ware that was not updated
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I got this ps4 at launch and never updated since 9.0
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    You got a good chance of buying a used one and asking the seller how often they used or even ask for a Pic of fw and telling them not to update
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Speaking of PLaystation. I see Evilnat put out a beta for PS3 CFW 4.91.2 on the 22nd.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Don't really see the point in updating it tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right, I thought about updating my PS3 CFW to 4.91, but why really, everything plays fine now. I guess for people that have already updated past 4.9 it would be helpful.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Idk if online servers are still active that would be my only thought

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Thats true, personally I don't play it online at all, in fact, I deleted all wifi details on it once I installed CFW, so it won't connect and auto-update itself

    I play most games that are on both PS3/360 strickly on the 360, but PS3 exclusives are really only games I play on the PS3
