Hacking TubeHax DNS down? Are we getting updated?

kms why

Even when the tubehax dns is down, it still prevents updates. I don't know exactly how it works, but I read a thread a while back and it said that the tubehax dns still blocked updates even when it was down. People marveled at it.

Is this definately the case? Updates are still blocked even if Tubehax is down? Why would that be?

If you put tubehax DNS as both DNS on your systems when it's down your console won't connect to any site at all. Problem is that you're relying the safety to a 3rd party that may restore access to Nintendo's severs.

True, but many people still prefer menuhax because they're paranoid of a brick from A9LH. If an update gets through and they do manage to update, their menuhax is gone.

The totals risks of not having A9HL is greater than having it. People need to be logical.

There are people that don"t use CFW and use TubeHax to prevent updates and lose Homebrew Launcher access.

True
inb4 the only real way of preventing accidental updates is not loaning your console to your brother/cousin/dog

Too risky. I'd want a9hl just for the safety, even if I didn't need the cfw for piracy.

Well thee"s also people that use the DNS in their Wii U"s to don"t configue manual the blocked in their routers to prevent updates, since the Wii U auto-update unlike the 3DS that first always ask you to update.

 

[Slartibartfast42]

Yea, I know. I use TubeHax to prevent my Wii U from updating.

Bad idea, unless you have a static IP (that's how they match user to blacklist)
