Guide to block by DNS all Nintendo servers​

With this guide you will be able to change DNS servers with ones that have all Nintendo servers blocked, thus preventing updates from being downloaded and thus also preventing CFWs and homebrews from stopping working.

As you will see, it is very easy to make the DNS changes.

The steps to follow are the following:

• Go to Console Settings
• Go to the "Internet" tab
• Open Internet settings
• If you already have your Wi-Fi connection configured, select it and select "Change options"
• In case you do not have any connection saved, select "Manual configuration" and enter your Wi-Fi connection and security settings.
• Set the DNS servers to "Manual" and put as Primary DNS Server to "163.172.141.219" and the secondary DNS server as "45.248.48.62".
• Save the settings and connect to the Wi-Fi.
• Done

REMEMBER: If you want to update the version of the console or some game you will need to undo these changes, just leave the DNS servers automatically.

And if you do not want to make this configuration because it is very tedious, you can always install the CFW SX OS since since version 1.6 it contains the stealth mode that allows you to connect to the Wi-Fi by blocking all Nintendo servers.
