Any DNS I could set up to block updates and play online? My ISP has this weird modem-router combo on which I can set next to nothing.
 
nope im still on 3.0.0 i just went on my switch it said update and i just pressed start software and went into worldwide online
Huh. Blocking the URL makes the Switch fail to connect to Nintendo's servers, but without it the Switch tells me to update when trying to play a game online.
 
I have a question , does anyone have a dns that i can actually load youtube videos on 3.0.0 because a dns i found on youtube wont let me load youtube videos it just freezes the youtube video or doesnt play
 
Since the exploit has to do with an Iphone webkit hack, doesn't that mean someone can just update the webkit hack everytime Nintendo does fix it? If Nintendo keeps fixing these exploits, that is bound to backfire considering eventually there will be a very big exploit that Nintendo accidentally implemented while fixing other exploits.
 
I know that method, but it requires a PC to be turned on while I want to play online.
I know that, just keep a PC on that only has Fiddler running. Unless you use Windows 10, there should be next to no chance of the PC causing your Online Play to lag.
 
yea i want to play online but now its asking me for system update?

anyone have a dns to blocking switch updates?
 
These posts saying "rip users who updated" are severely exaggerated. 3.0.1 isn't the end of the world.

There isn't a single public exploit that allows homebrew and the ReSwitched team itself said that it's very unlikely for it to happen this year. I am lazy as fuck and will not be delaying the update for a whole year. :rofl2:

Updated my switch a few hours ago, i am sure that when the time comes 3.0.0 won't be the only exploitable system firmware version.

Viewing the thread above shows that 3 more addresses have to be blocked to bypass the update nag. You can do it with Fiddler, which like I said, does not affect your Online-Play unless you have other online stuff running on the computer hosting the Fiddler server. Or you can wait for a new DNS server to come up that blocks these addresses. Here are the addresses that need to be blocked:

http://dauth-lp1.ndas.srv.nintendo.net:443
http://atumn.hac.lp1.d4c.nintendo.net:443
http://aqua.hac.lp1.d4c.nintendo.net:443

There seems to be a workaround for the update required message in splatoon.

Blocking the domain dauth-lp1.ndas.srv.nintendo.net until you're in game seems to allow you to bypass the update required message.

seems it doesn't work now. Still got the system update required message when trying to connect to the server.

Probably because some of those addresses are related to Online-Play. That, or the MK8 online servers also check your Firmware.
