Hi everyone, I used my oled picofly switch since 2years without issue but I have a question about my atmosphere hosts configuration.

In my default.txt file I have theses lines :

# Nintendo Telemetry Servers
127.0.0.1 receive-%.dg.srv.nintendo.net receive-%.er.srv.nintendo.net
# Nintendo CDN Servers
95.216.149.205 conntest.nintendowifi.net
95.216.149.205 ctest.cdn.nintendo.net
I wonder If i can remove them. I play online with atmosphere on sysnand (smash mods only). I also play sometimes on emunand but I have a different hosts config that blocks everything for this one.

I cant update hour from sysCFW and sometimes, I have issue with nintendo account connection. I have to switch to stock version to be able to fix theses issues.

May I can remove some or all lines safetly ?
 
What are you doing /trying online that isn't working? If the answer is nothing, then I would ask... WHY would you want to remove any lines? The atmosphere hosts file is only there to keep you from getting banned. If you allow a connection to any Nintendo CDN on a nand that has EVER installed an unofficial thing (even one of your own backups, or homebrew like tinfoil or something) to your home screen, your system will get banned.

If it isn't broke, don't fix it. The hosts file isn't going to slow your system down in the slightest.

Also, system updates should ALWAYS be done in stock or semi-stock mode anyway (I do this, then dump the firmware to install it in emunand). but if your sysnand is clean, you can read the atmosphere docs and set up the blocks to occur ONLY for emunand. Just read here: https://github.com/Atmosphere-NX/Atmosphere/blob/master/docs/features/dns_mitm.md

Thank you for you anwer =)

I have issues only with clock sync and nintendo account connection. On my sysnand, everything is clean. I play online regulary with smash bros mods which is theorically safe. On my emunand, I have host file + blank prod info. Maybe theses lines are the cause of my issues with clock and nintendo acc, thats why im askin
