    Hello, I recently got a 3ds, I have an R4 card with a lot of old ds games and a genuine copy of acnl. Would it be safe to play a payed-for game online while having custom firmware downloaded?
    Thanks

    Yes you can, Nintendo has stopped the ban on 3ds.

    Nintendo really only banned for a few factors, like cheating online, inappropriate content on Miiverse (which is no longer a thing,) and playing super popular games, like Pokemon, before launch. Other than that, there really hasn't been any reports of anyone being banned for going online with CFW on their 3DS or even going online with CIA installed games.

    What's the DNS setting for the PS4 to prevent it from getting firmware updates online?
