The old thread made back in march is out of date. If your on 3.0.0 block these addresses (eshop access won't work, until someone figures out a bypass)
here is the complete list of must blocks
ones known previously:
http://sun.hac.lp1.d4c.nintendo.net:443
http://beach.hac.lp1.eshop.nintendo.net:443
and ones that I found (that you must block to stop update nag! as of august):
http://dauth-lp1.ndas.srv.nintendo.net:443
http://atumn.hac.lp1.d4c.nintendo.net:443
http://aqua.hac.lp1.d4c.nintendo.net:443
you must block all five as of august in order to stop switch nag.


Some useful threads

out of date list (but contains stuff not mentioned!)

Eshop problem:so as far as I looked into it (not super deep) it appears dauth is responsible for allowing people into eshop.... but there is a catch. as that also make the system nag for a update.... So this means that somebody has to figure out a tool to force the response to duath to be different or valid. aqua is also the same... As far as I know. Which I'm not the smartest guy on the planet so I could be partially wrong. However I can confirm that all five must be blocked.

do you use your router to block these?

Wow, Nintendo must be getting more serious in pushing their updates. Added the new URLs as soon as I viewed this thread.
update for you guys, apparently sun and beach are no longer used, so I guess we can presume Nintendo changed those two to autmn and aqua.

For some reason even if I apply all of these addresses I still get an update nag from games. And eShop still prompts me to update.
How is this supposed to work, and have you connected online and stuff successfully?

In the fiddler it still blocks everything but I can't play games online or go into games without accidently pressing update :mellow:.

ok for everyone else keep in mind you WON'T have eshop access, and pug, did you block the aqua server? Also keep in mind I'm a one man army here.

aqua server causes nag for game updates or when downloading one, thus causing a nag for a system update.

Sorry about that.
Yeah I connected aqua and still no luck :unsure: These are all the addresses I connected

I'm thinking about just adding all of the IP's listed here to the list but I don't know if it would be safe or worth the effort listed here. https://gbatemp.net/threads/dns-to-block-the-updates-of-the-switch.465952/#post-7208328

what are you using to block them? My router doesn't block any of the switch adresses so I'm forced to use fiddler. If your not use fiddler I would recommend you give it a try.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too

    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
