This doesn't work. Myself and a few friends had it set up on all wifi networks and we now have the update nag.

A bit offtopic but what you did was super cumbersome. Pip is just a python package manager (utility to download and take care of python extra libraries). If you downloaded a python installer which I'm sure you did, you would already have pip installed.
Then all you had to do was run a command line (e.g WindowsKey+R => cmd) and then do the "pip install whatever".
As for running the script the using an IDE part is not "wrong" per se but could had downloaded the python script, change to that directory on command line (e.g "cd "c:\users\tommy\Downloads") and run it with "python script.python".

Thanks for the knowledge! I realise what I did was extremely inefficient, so I'm glad you helped me understand. I tried a few cmd prompts, but didn't understand how they worked. Perhaps I should have done cd c:/(location of python IDE) then tried the command line prompts! Appreciate it

I don't dare to use 90dns because of the risk of nintendo changing servers, but I would be happy to use it if you could make modified version that only works for YouTube, Hulu, retroarch, etc and local FTP purposes, but blocks everything else. That way server changes would not be an issue. I have my phone for browsing.

90DNS is still working, I tested 2 hours ago (I host one of the servers)
Did you run the network test to make sure you ISP doesn't hijack it? Because that happens
It's also possible they have added an extra server which isn't on the list
Another possibility is like the 3ds spot pass

sounds to me nintendo changed the servers to get around 90dns rendering it ineffective for now

i'm under 90dns, and the 7.0.0 has been downloaded on my switch today ...

did you check if your ISP hijacks the dns?

For all those wondering I spoke with the Ave,

90DNS still works, meaning it's configured wrong, your ISP is hijacking it, or you got the update from elsewhere

Blame your ISP, works perfectly for me and many others. I'm still investigating anyways, but it does not sound to me like a 90dns problem.

yt/hulu requires dauth. dauth is banbait.

This isn't working at the moment for me. Worked for two weeks then suddenly the Switch will connect to the internet but when I test the internet it fails the test. Tried on 3 different Wifis, my own, my friend who uses Verizon internet and one friend that uses Xfinity so its not ISP and its not my setup since I haven't changed anything and it stopped working. Is anyone else having issues?

If both servers are down at once then it will just refuse connection, otherwise to my knowledge both servers are up and running properly

idk then it was setup properly 24 hours ago and now I'm getting Error Code: 2160-8007 and when running the test it lists the SSID and the second it gets to Internet Connection it fails and result in that error code.

Really sorry if anyone else had this problem and fixed. I've tried googling but I guess I'm not using the right terms to be able to find the solution.

When I change the internet connection DNS settings (on my Switch) to the 90dns one(s), it doesn't work. I mean, I can open eshop.
When I change the DNS settings on my router to the 90dns one(s), it does work. I can't open eshop.

I want to be able to connect my 3DS to nintendo servers. So, I want to manually set the Switch DNS to 90dns, but not for my other devices. Can anyone help me figure out what's going on?

As I always say when I ask for help online... apologies if I'm being an idiot and missing the obvious. It's certainly a possibility.

There's a problem with Title installers on 7.0.0

Simply trying to install NSPs in general crashes Atmosphere for me.

Using custom DNS's to do this stuff is unreliable. If your console downloaded the 7.0 update, then 90DNS also likely just got you banned. Try incognito:

Stop spreading misinformation, and don't spam my threads. I only answered your thread because you were spreading incorrect information about 90DNS, but no one mentioned you here.

In the past I've talked with various people who stated that they got updates downloaded (with 90DNS on), and no one who connected properly (by following the guide, and wasn't getting DNS hijacked) was banned.

Your argument is invalid.

You're spreading incorrect information that 90dns is reliable and wont get you banned :) Unless you think the 7.0 updates just magically teleported to those user's switches and banned them likely.
