Sorry to slightly hijack the thread guys, can one of you give me the current exact list of urls to block, i block Ninty urls using my router as a second layer of protection and if any can be allowed i would love to do that.

I've installed this as my primary DNS, with 127.0.0.1 as the secondary DNS...
If Ninty drops 11.3U for 3DS, or 5.6 for Wii U, I'll be ready to see if this blocks it.

- nus.cdn.shop.wii.com (update download server for Wii)
- nus.cdn.wup.shop.nintendo.net (update download server for Wii U)
- nus.wup.shop.nintendo.net (used to check network availability, Wii U) (if can't be reached, an error is issued and no update can be triggered: this should be the minimal protection, I don't know if it's enough by itself though)
- nus.c.shop.nintendowifi.net (used to check network availability, Wii)
- + if you want to filter for a non-A9LH'd 3DS (should help to keep browserhax): cbvc.cdn.nintendo.net
Yeah, the tagaya hostnames are unblocked on mine as well. I've updated my thread about them to remove them from the list of what is blocked.

Does doing this still allow access to internet? I still want to use TCP Gecko and Wii U game Trainers...

Ok, I have a question about this part:
Set Secondary to 127.0.0.1
Is it ".100" at the end of the string, or is it ".001"? Help appreciated

001, although either would technically work.Ok, I have a question about this part:

Then you're doing something wrong... Please be sure you have this set as your primary DNS... I just tested.
35.164.240.189
This just points to nowhere it's the default send requests nowhere ip similar to 0.0.0.0, pretty much any non existant ip will work thereOk, I have a question about this part:

I'd vouch for the LA DNS. If your primary one goes down, you won't even notice it!
127.0.01 (loopback) is you, not nowhere. Connections with timeouts can return immediately on loopback because you can actively refuse them. If you use an arbitrary IP, you have to wait for the connection to fail to respond - there's nothing at the address to tell you no immediately. Whether 0.0.0.0 returns immediately is dependent on the implementation. (I haven't checked the WiiU)
yeah forgot that 127.0.0.1 was localhost also 0.0.0.0 is null so the wii u should just refuse to attempt to connect to it, also it wouldn't matter that it would have to wait an extra few secs to see if there is a connection because once it realises there is none it will stop trying until the user tries to use an online service
Eshop = Nintendo update servers = system updates so no
