  1. so annoyed rn i want to play cloud saves on my original Switch, but I keep getting this:

    Can't connect to the server.

    Can't connect to the server.
    The server may be busy, or your network connection
    may have been lost. Try again later.
    Connection test:  Internet  Failed
    

    Im on a mesh network. My phone and laptop work fine. The console says its connected to teh internet in the settings, but as soon as i try to actually go online, it fails. Im missing out on game nights with frineds. What should i check?

    game night is in two days, and i realy dont wanna be teh one who cant join. any ideas are welcome, even basic ones. thx in advance!!

  2. ahh classic check the official network status page for maintenance or outages. If a service is down, teh console shows a generic error that looks like a local problem. good luck man!

  5. yeahhh run System Settings > Internet > Test Connection and check the NAT type. NAT type A or B is usually fine for most games. C, D or F can cause exactly this. hope that helps :)

  8. been there man enable UPnP on teh router if its off. it lets the console open the ports it needs and often improves the NAT type.
