I can go on friends list when I’m on my phones hotspot but home wifi doesn’t let me connect to servers. If it’s my router does anyone know what I would need to do? It’s weird hotspot works cause that would imply it’s not a server issue or an installation issue. I’ve seen multiple people with this problem and no solutions so I figured I’d add my ticket here too
I’ve also been told to just wait it out and I’ve been waiting for a little over a month
Also thinking about it now it’s pretendo exclusive because I can use net pass and the web browser

@wide bloom Can't guarantee this will work, but see #1246947378326536276 message

Connect to hotspot and then turn hotspot off p much?

or if you want to play Mario Kart 7, check out CTGP-7. They have their own custom server and a better anti-cheat

I wouldn't turn it off necessarily. If you don't get 0502 with your hotspot connection, you may have to keep using it

Sounds good, I’m not sure how to choose which internet connection it’s using it’s just automatic right?

On the 3DS, go to your Internet Settings. On your hotspot, set a network name (SSID) and a password and security type (strongly recommended; may cause issues with vDS connections however). Search for connections on your 3DS, find your new SSID and your in its password.
It's worth noting that depending on your data plan (if you're using mobile data) you may be unable to use a hotspot. Other plans may limit to 10GB before rate-limiting. (The 3DS typically consumes 1GB for every 4-6 hours of online gameplay, or even longer depending on the situation; results may vary.)

Similar to the Wii U, except perhaps MAYBE a little more data heavy
however using things like NTRStream on N3DS will significantly increase data usage to about 1GB every 30-60 minutes
(I know this is off-topic but if you do get rate-limited to, say, 128kbps, some Wii games are actually still playable online, such as Mario Kart Wii. I've actually done that before and didn't get banned; supposedly some have even used dial-up with success.)

I’m confused, I already have my hotspot and home wifi set in my internet setting I just am not sure how to select which one it’s using and the suggestion you linked to was saying something like connect through hotspot then switch to home wifi

Do you have both connections saved on the 3DS?
civic dock
Okay. The 3DS will automatically select whichever network it can connect to. However, with Luma3DS, you can force a connection to a specific network.
System Configuration. (if I'm not mistaken)

Oh gotcha thank you
Yeah it’s still not connecting after switching to home wifi. Like my original question is it something to do with my router? Or is this something pretendo is needing to fix

As in, you're still getting error 001–0502?
wide bloom
Yeah only on home wifi

Alright I’ll look into how to change that
Idk anything about router settings haha but thanks for pointing me in a direction to look into
