Hacking Question about blocking WiiU updates

[7Robins]

I'm confused on how the whole blocking updates thing works using a DNS like Tubehax. I've seen several say it occasionally goes down, and I've also seen the fact that Youtube is unaccessible. Is YT the only thing we can't access?

Will I be able to download eShop updates (like for Splatoon, since that's the only game I really care about) and play online?

Unfortunately, I can't find the Content Filtering option in my router settings, so my only option is to use a DNS.

1. I found that it blocks mobile youtube, not regular, so you're fine
2. You're better off with this DNS: 104.236.72.203
3. NO UPDATES! Use NNU Patcher if you want to use eShop while blocking it.
4. Online works fine.

So the YT app works?

And interesting all right I'll look into NNU Patcher, thanks for the info

Why would you want to use the app? Web-version is way faster.

It probably is, but I'm used to using the terrible app. It's more convenient for me just having the app there alongside my games.

I also connect my phone to find and play videos from, which now that I think about is probably supported on the Web version as well.
