BrowseDNS - Enable Access to the Open Internet

[TheZwick32]

@Bonzey2416 said in BrowseDNS - Enable Access to the Open Internet:

Maybe in 15.0.0 or 16.0.0 software update (late 2022/early 2023), perhaps Nintendo will add an Internet browser app, with tabs, video/audio support, bookmarks and... no timeout.

.....No. I'm sorry to say this, but as of December 2024 you STILL can't access the browser unless you use the ol' 45.55.142.122 trick. You may ask: Why am I using the "old" Switchbru DNS? The answer is: Switchbru DNS has a link here, and more stuff too!
...Fingers crossed that they will add a regular browser as a Christmas update or something.
Edit: Early April 2025, nothing.

@genderenigma Welcome to BrowseDNS Forums!

Read the following... https://browsedns.net/topic/6438/d

Hi I’m new here! Not 100% sure this is the correct forum but I’m having problems accessing any websites through the switch dns that have cloud flare installed. It’s just stuck loading!! Any workaround or fix?

[TheZwick32]

@genderenigma Ah yes, “Cloudflare syndrome”. Happens to me on the computers at my school all the time. I’d say just give up and use Discross.

[TheZwick32]

@kawa Sadly, no. Nintendo has heavily restricted the web browser, which is also the reason you can’t play video/media, use advanced sites, log in to Discord, use any Cloudflare-protected sites, use virtually any PWA, and why the browser has a 20-minute timeout. (BTW: Use 45.55.142.122 as the DNS address(es) if you’re not already. It has a link here, plus a bunch of other features! It’s called Switchbru Dashboard and can be accessed on a computer/PC at dashboard.switchbru.com.)

Hello ! tried today if I can access with my hacked switch to the built-in browser and that's unsuccessful. When I enter the primary DNS (45.55.142.122) and test the connection, it's... a full success. No fail when trying to connect on the Internet.

What am I doing wrong ? (Switch v1, on 18.0.1 OFW / 1.7.1 AMS)

how do u access via youtube??

[er]

I don't like the fact that I can't watch youtube on my switch

[A Former User]

@er you can, but it cant be on the browser. you have to go into the nintendo e-shop search "youtube" and it should come up unless you have parental restrictions on your device.

[er]

Yes,but to access the eshop,I need to sign in to my parents account, and I don't know the password
