Oh this is NOT a lie... If you have a Switch, follow my instructions to get it working.

I think he's right, I remember watching a video that had to do with being able to visit Google on your switch. I don't know the details but I think you had to connect to something... I don't know. But It would be nice if Nintendo actually made a web browser themselves that is easy to access and use, after all they made one for the Wii.

This is using the legit web browser, which is already built in, this is just using a custom DNS to allow it to bypass Nintendo's restrictions.

Yeah, I tried it myself, and it works! Probably the only bad thing about it is the fact that there is a 20 minute timer before you get kicked out of the web browser. Also if you switch the Primary DNS back to "Automatically" to connect to your network again, then switch back to "Manual", the number you're supposed to put in will be saved and you don't have to remember it after you save! You just need to change DNS settings to "Manual", and you can access the web browser with ease!

Yeah, sorry... Forgot to mention the settings get saved... But did NOT remember the timeout... Thanks for reminding me!

No problem. Also other things that require the internet will take you to the web browser. For example, clicking the online section of Super Smash Bros Ultimate or simply being on YouTube will instantly take you to the web browser, so try that if connecting to your network won't work. Fun fact, I learned that game music will still play even if you are in the web browser. In Super Smash Bros Ultimate, you could literally go to your music, play a song, go back to the main screen, click online, and go to the web browser with your song of choice.

Yeah, I knew all that. (except for the music part, did NOT know that one!) but actually, the only OFFICIAL way of accessing the browser is through the social media sign-in pages on your user profile... But of course there are others.

There IS a REAL Switch browser that Nintendo REALLY does NOT want you to kow about.

Here's how to get it: Make sure Parental Controls are DISABLED, go into your network setings, and change the Primary DNS to "Manual" using this server: 045.055.142.122, then save, and connect to the network. When "Registration is required to use this network" appears, that means you did it right, and you can now use the FULLY FUNCTIONAL Switch browser!

Yeah, I know... Because there is no official logo for the Switch browser, I had to use the Wii U's browser logo... Sorry!
