Idea Add ability to disable Nintendo network connectivity when atmosphere is running #112

fennectech commented 6 years ago

I suggest adding the ability to turn off Nintendo network connectivity while atmosphere runs to reduce chances of a ban.

SciresM commented 6 years ago

This is a native feature, just enable airplane mode.

fennectech commented 6 years ago

It isnt tho. Because some homebrew may involve use of the network. (Like ftp server). But not Nintendo network. So there could be usecases for disabling Nintendo network without disabling ALL networking. Plus airplane mode disables Bluetooth and other hardware

drofdoom commented 6 years ago

Disable Nintendo network by blocking them from your network via router or firewall.

fennectech commented 6 years ago

That works. But its not perfect. Ill look into it. But the idea is like with ferrox on PS3 you can disable cfw and enable PSN. (When cfw is enabled a plugin is loaded witch prevents the ps3 from talking to PSN) but can disable cfw and essentially go back to ofw!

sonofskywalker3 commented 6 years ago

That only works if you want it permanent, and it's a pain to have to change it every time you boot back to OFW. I agree an option to block Nintendo network traffic on CFW would be a great future addition.

fennectech commented 6 years ago

He gets it!!

fennectech commented 6 years ago

Thanks for all the hard work on atmosphere. Its going to be GREAT and you shal become our homebrew god!

drofdoom commented 6 years ago

But it's emunand ?

fennectech commented 6 years ago

Nah. We’re talking about users that want to not use Nintendo network only when using CFW And boot into OFW to play online with a reduced risk of being banned

drofdoom commented 6 years ago

Use a proxy block the addresses with the port for your proxy added at the end for cfw and on ofw leave it open .

fennectech commented 6 years ago

That could work. Using a second copy of your WiFi profile with no proxy and the main auto connect profile with a proxy. But its still not perfect and just a setting obeyed when atmosphere launches by default. But its not really a thing every user could do by themselves

Themperror commented 6 years ago

a native approach such as a hosts file (windows example) would be great. Allows for users to specify what exactly to block, and adjustable once nintendo adds more domains or changes any.

drofdoom commented 6 years ago

Exactly as long as you keep an eye open with Wireshark you'll always spot them addresses.
