Ok. I literally just woke up

#

Also i did a test connection and it said connection successful

#

If u mean that-

#

I can make rooms in games but noone can join, i cant join other rooms and cant go worldwide.

#

I tried many games and got thesame error code

there is a support code in the bottom right after you finish a connection test

Ah ok, here

You got dealt a shitty hand, you'll need to look into ways to increase your NAT Type because I believe right now you are at D which is the worst NAT Type that doesnt remove any possibility of doing p2p connection

Pretendo Network
[Guide] Detecting your NAT type on Wii U and 3DS consoles

Before I begin, I would like to thank @piplupness and @PN_quarky for helping me test this, as well as some initial information posted by @numerofoxtheglaceon_ on Pretendo’s Discord server. I initially started working on this after information was very vague on how to decode a code that the Connection Test outputs, all I had to go from when I ...

#

Ok, so ig i need to fix that somehow

#

Anyways

#

Thanks

#

But could u explain in short what's going on?

#

I suck at tech stuff

#

Before i modded my wii u the online was functioning just fine, after i modded it- well this happened

supple jackal
#

ight i dont understand anything

#

what am i even suppose to do?

#

so i cant do anything, great...

#

maybe modding the wii u was a bad idea

#

nvm i turned off Inkay and with "Nintendo Network" using the pretendo DNS now im back online-

#

im so confused...

#

now miiverse is loading forever

#

huh- and if i turn Inkay back on it wont work again

#

ight i give up- i guess i wont need inkay just for miiverse, ill stick just to the DNS cuz i have no more nerves to deal with this stuff... its confusing me a lot

#

i got Support Code: 220-00 and now i can play online in lobbies.
idk ill just leave all of this to u to figure out if any of this info means anything to u that is-

So your NAT type is bad, off the top of my head I think 220-01 is NAT D? Either C or D, which means you can only play with users who have NAT type A
In simple terms, as far as I know, your router is very strict about who can and cannot connect, and most people cannot connect as in my experience, most people tend to have NAT type B
This is nothing to do with modding your Wii U and typically everything to do with your router or ISP, there's not much we can do other than suggest setting up port triggering/forwarding rules, as this is a problem on your end
To be fair, it's not the worst NAT type, you can still play online but only with NAT type A users, NAT type F cannot do P2P at all apparently

thanks

#

so i need to take down the fire wall from my router

#

is that it?

I wouldn't recommend that, since a firewall is a security feature and I'd rather not make things less secure, but if you find that it makes the connection better, do what you must if you're okay with it
