How do test if it has internet? Nintendo has shut down eShop and online play, so those features are expected not to work. (If you don’t know someone running a reverse engineered servers like pretendo, and set DNS of 3ds accordingly)

I have two 3ds in my wpa2 network (should have written wpa3 in comment prior, got confused, only OG DS does not support wpa2) and they connect to the internet very well (with only 500k down 😂 but it is enough to download games (😜from the source where there are still some available) over night)

The internet status in the top left when on the home screen, it is blue for about half a min then turns grey which signifies losing connection

I have no idea why this happens tho, so for now I'll stick to 3g hotspot til it gets removed
