Alright...

[The Thrashmeister]

...This is REALLY getting annoying. I keep getting error code 86420 when I try to visit other towns in AC:WW, and now, I found out that people can't even visit my town. It's most likely a problem with my firewall, but I don't know what the heck to do with it. Can someone PLEASE help?

5 people I know got that yesterday and today. I myself have no firewalls and have a open wifi connection. (My friend uses mine all the time, cheap, I know!) I feel your pain! ;_;

That doesn't really help. I was there before, and I don't really understand it.

Also, I was able to visit other towns before, but I can't do it now. That's what gets me.

I dont know? I dont get what it says about firewalls iether. Get someone who understands Techno talk

Did that, been there, didn't work. I have no firewall set up on my computer, plus, Mario Kart DS works fine.

 

[The Thrashmeister]

My MKDS works fine as well...

Try testing the connection

 

[Swampy]

Try testing the connection

Not to be rude, but, are you running out of options for an answer? I ran out an hour a go. The connection works fine. Takes about 2 seconds for it to connect. Hm....interesing.

 

[Hoshi no Kabii]

Yes I an running out of options. One more try........try turning off all firewall and security stuff

 

[Polaros]

Seriously that keeps happening to me too, I used to be able to not go to a few towns but now, mostly everyone I try going to it wont let me!! What's wrong! What's uo with wi-fi, Virus?

 

[Swampy]

I never had them on because my friend is too cheap to pay for internet so I let him use it wirelessly. No firewall or security is on at the current time.

 

[Silverwing]

Same thing with me too. No one can come into my town and I can't go out.

I had a similar problem a while ago, but it just sort of cleared itself up. One day no one's towns were showing up or Copper wouldn't let me out, the next day it was fine.

[The Thrashmeister]

Ugh, I've been to both of those sites, either they don't help or I just don't understand them.

 

[Shining Milotic]

welcome to my world, ever since i first figured out about friend codes and such i've been getting that 86420 error code.... i've probably gotten it about 50 time now..... (no, i don't have any advice on how to fix it either)

If you have AOL or anything (just letting others know) - you will have a problem getting on WiFi via the USB Adapter.

I had that problem for ages using a Linksys WRT54G(a five star rating from NWFC.com, mind you) Then I updated the firmware, and bam. Instant online bliss.

 

[Dimentio]

it doesnt seem to be with the firewall, since i tried it while my firewall was off, when i turned it off then on, and with the firewall, and it seems to me numerous people here on SPPf have done the same thing. Could it possibly be a sort of thing like the Red Tulip problem? Could it be Nintendo fixing the Wi-fi because of the Red Tulip, thus causing nobody else on until it is over and done? Those are my best guesses.
