DNS name resolution?

Ov
- in Nintendo
8

I just started my Nintendo Switch, only to find out that I can't connect. "A DNS name resolution could not be carried out". Nintendo's support doesn't help. Incidentally, all other devices work. What can I do - ask for help!

Nothing, wait, is the same with me.

If you can specify a DNS server, set it to 9.9.9.9 or 8.8.8.8. Otherwise just wait and see.

I just found out - Nintendo announced 2 minutes ago that no online service was working.

Such a 💩

I'm fine now!

First you go to the network settings of your WLAN. Then you go to the DNS settings and select "manual" there. For the primary DNS server you enter 8.8.8.8 and for the secondary 8.8.4.4 everything should work again. It was the same with me

Thanks for the information 🤗👍

Well - that means that your DSL DNS is not that great - 8.8.8.8 etc. Are provided by Google.
