Every time I try to launch a game or go into WiFi settings I get «Error Code: 2110-1118 (sometimes 1115) Wireless communication is not currently available due to an error.» Then it asks me to turn off the system in power options, which I’ve done countless times now.
I do remember a few days ago I found my switch (which had been in sleep mode using EmuNAND) had it’s screen on while in docked mode with a weird error message. It asked me to press the power button to reboot the console, or something to that effect (wish I had taken a picture). After rebooting I was still able to use WiFi and wireless controllers for a few days after that, but then the issue described above began.
At this point I’m letting the battery drain to see if that helps anything, but beyond that I’m looking for any other ideas.
1. Doing some research, some have said it may just mean my wireless card has died. Would that affect both WiFi and Bluetooth? Any good guides for replacing this card? I haven’t really been able to find anything useful on this front. Obviously I can’t send the hacked switch into Nintendo for repair — even for a cost.
2. I haven’t tried reinitializing my console. If it wasn’t hacked I would’ve already done this but I’m not sure how it works on a hacked switch. Can I just remove my SD card and initialize using SysNAND? If I replug in the SD card can I use my jig, launch a payload, and still have all my games from the SD card on EmuNAND?
I appreciate any ideas/advice. Thanks.

Just as anything else electronic, it can break.
It’s on a seperate board afaik.
In some cases it’s just a bad connection due to corrosion.
They sell these board for just a few dollars on Aliexpress.

I had the same problem a long time ago. I fixed it by reconnecting the wireless cable that goes in the wifi module (it seems that it was disconnected due to some blow).
Interesting. I’m not sure I’ve noticed a wire to the wifi module. If you’re able to show an image of what you mean I’m open to giving it a try.

You can search «Replace Wifi antenna Nintendo Switch» with your trustworthy search engine, there will be plenty of results that show you how to do it.
After you adjust antenna cable, the problem still persists, I think u should replace wifi chip on your motherboard. Depends on u device, u can buy them (BCM4356XKUBG or CYW4356XKUBG) from AliExpress quite cheap (mine is around 3$ for each piece). But it will take more knowledge and tools to replace those chip. I have done some in the past and as reported, they are still doing fine.

If it seems lifted/displaced, due to shock or something, reseat it. Otherwise it’s better to leave it alone.

It’s usually the wifi chip is dying. I just worked on an OLED switch with this error code several weeks ago, had to reflow the wireless chip to fix the problem. Reflow it first, if that doesn’t solve the issue you probably need to replace it. You need to get one used, removed from working motherboard (brand new chips won’t work as they need to be programmed). Btw probably not related to you, if you tried to lift the soc shied before, try to check if you damaged those 2 smd capacitors to the left of the soc. If they are damaged you will get this error message.

It’s not wifi antenna’s problem. Even if wifi antennas are not connected, you won’t get the pop up error message.It’s usually the wifi chip is dying. I just worked on an OLED switch with this error code several weeks ago, had to reflow the wireless chip to fix the problem. Reflow it first, if that doesn’t solve the issue you probably need to replace it.

If they are damaged you will get this error message.
I thought reflowing might be the path I have to go.
Any suggestions on temp, distance, etc. Never done a reflow before so I’ll take any tips.
Thanks.

I usually use 380 degrees C when working with leaded solder, medium wind speed, don’t get too close to the chip and as always apply a generous amount of flux. Watch some videos on youtube before working on your switch.
Also be extra careful as there are many tiny components near the wifi chip. Don’t set wind speed too high or you’ll blow them away.

Before you start replacing hardware and messing about with stuff. You do know that you should try in OFW first to see if the fault persists.
Thanks for the suggestion. I did and the problem is the same.

This generally what you are suggesting? Though it doesn’t look like they used any flux.
Thanks.

Некоторые пользователи Nintendo Switch сталкиваются с кодом ошибки 2110-2003 при попытке подключиться к своей домашней сети Wi-Fi. Этот конкретный диапазон кодов ошибок указывает на проблему, которая возникла до попытки вашей консоли получить IP-адрес.
Код ошибки Nintendo Switch 2110-2003
После изучения этой конкретной проблемы выяснилось, что эта проблема может возникать по нескольким причинам. Вот краткий список потенциальных виновников, которые могут вызвать эту проблему:
- Поврежденный временный файл. Поскольку эта проблема иногда возникает, когда пользователи пытаются переключиться между двумя или более сетями, пользователи предполагают, что этот код ошибки возникает из-за какого-то сбоя, вызванного некоторыми временными файлами. К счастью, большинству затронутых пользователей удалось решить эту проблему, выключив и снова выключив консоль.
- Несогласованность сети TCP / IP. При устранении этой конкретной проблемы невозможно исключить проблему с адресом Интернет-протокола или с протоколом управления передачей. В этом случае вы можете решить эту проблему, перезагрузив или сбросив настройки маршрутизатора, чтобы сетевое устройство переназначило эти значения.
- Изменение сетевой безопасности. По словам некоторых затронутых пользователей, эта проблема часто возникает, если вы принудительно подключили консоль коммутатора, не имея активной беспроводной эквивалентной конфиденциальности или защищенного доступа Wi-Fi. Nintendo Switch, как известно, это не любит, поэтому для решения этой проблемы вы должны иметь возможность решить проблему, убедившись, что вы активно используете метод безопасности WEP / WPA.
- Несогласованный DNS. Другой случай, который потенциально может вызвать эту проблему, — это неправильный диапазон DNS, который создает нестабильность подключения, которая не допускается вашей консолью коммутатора. Если этот сценарий применим, вы сможете решить эту проблему, переключившись на диапазон DNS, предоставленный Google.
Метод 1: выключите и снова включите консоль
По словам нескольких затронутых пользователей, этот конкретный код ошибки также может возникать из-за сбоя, вызванного временным файлом, который в настоящее время хранит ваша консоль. В этом случае вы сможете решить эту проблему, выполнив программный сброс.
Эта операция успешно очистит любые временные данные вместе с силовыми конденсаторами, гарантируя, что никакие временные данные не могут сохраниться между запусками и вызовут код ошибки 2110-2003.
Успешность этой операции была подтверждена несколькими затронутыми пользователями, которые ранее сталкивались с той же проблемой.
Вот краткое руководство по сбросу настроек Nintendo Switch:
- На консоли нажмите и удерживайте круглую кнопку питания (находится в верхней части консоли Switch).
- Удерживайте кнопку нажатой, пока не увидите, что система отключается (это произойдет через 10-15 секунд).
Кнопка питания на Nintendo Switch
- После выключения консоли подождите целую минуту, чтобы убедиться, что силовые конденсаторы разряжены, затем снова нажмите кнопку питания (обычно), чтобы снова включить консоль.
- Если вы все сделали правильно, на экране дисплея должна появиться более длинная анимация логотипа Switch. Если вы его видите, примите это как подтверждение того, что операция успешно завершена.
- После завершения следующего запуска консоли попробуйте еще раз подключиться к домашней сети и посмотрите, успешно ли на этот раз операция.
Если вы по-прежнему сталкиваетесь с тем же кодом ошибки 2110-2003, перейдите к следующему потенциальному исправлению ниже.
Метод 2: перезагрузка или сброс маршрутизатора
Если вы видите код ошибки 2110-2003 на консоли Nintendo Switch, но также сталкиваетесь с аналогичными проблемами с другими устройствами, которые в настоящее время подключены к вашему домашнему маршрутизатору, вы, вероятно, имеете дело с несогласованностью сети.
К счастью, большинство подобных случаев можно решить либо простой перезагрузкой, либо сбросив настройки маршрутизатора до значений по умолчанию.
Если вы решите выполнить простую перезагрузку маршрутизатора, имейте в виду, что эта операция приведет к обновлению вашего IP-адреса и назначенного DNS, который использует ваша консоль. Это не представляет риска потери данных.
Чтобы выполнить перезагрузку маршрутизатора, используйте кнопку ВКЛ / ВЫКЛ на маршрутизаторе (обычно она находится на задней панели). Когда маршрутизатор включен, нажмите на него один раз, чтобы выключить его, затем физически отсоедините кабель питания, чтобы убедиться, что силовые конденсаторы полностью разряжены.
Выключите маршрутизатор Netgear
По прошествии этого периода времени дождитесь восстановления доступа к Интернету, затем попробуйте снова подключить консоль Nintendo к домашнему маршрутизатору и посмотрите, решена ли проблема.
В случае, если та же проблема все еще решена, следующим курсом действий должен быть сброс маршрутизатора. Для этого вам нужно будет использовать специальную кнопку на задней панели.
Примечание: имейте в виду, что большинство производителей делают эту кнопку встроенной, чтобы ее не было случайно. Для доступа к этой кнопке вам понадобится небольшая отвертка или аналогичный предмет.
Но если вы хотите выполнить сброс маршрутизатора, имейте в виду, что эта операция в основном вернет настройки вашего маршрутизатора к значениям по умолчанию. Это означает, что любые пользовательские настройки, которые вы установили в настройках вашего маршрутизатора, будут потеряны — включая перенаправленные порты, элементы из белого списка, заблокированные устройства и т.
Чтобы инициировать сброс маршрутизатора, нажмите и удерживайте кнопку сброса (на задней панели маршрутизатора) и удерживайте ее около 10 секунд или до тех пор, пока не увидите, как все индикаторы на передней панели мигают одновременно. Как только вы заметите такое поведение, отпустите кнопку сброса и подождите, пока соединение не будет восстановлено.
Сбросить ваш маршрутизатор
После завершения этой процедуры повторно установите соединение с Интернетом и посмотрите, завершена ли операция.
Примечание. Если вы используете PPPoE, вам потребуется повторно ввести учетные данные для входа, предоставленные вашим интернет-провайдером.
После восстановления доступа в Интернет попытайтесь подключить консоль Nintendo Switch к Интернету через маршрутизатор и посмотрите, устранен ли код ошибки.
Если вы по-прежнему сталкиваетесь с тем же кодом ошибки 2110-2003, перейдите к следующему потенциальному исправлению ниже.
Метод 3: изменение сетевой безопасности
Ни один из вышеперечисленных методов не сработал для вас, возможно, вы действительно имеете дело с довольно распространенной ошибкой, связанной с тем, как ваша консоль Switch знает, как управлять методом безопасности вашей сети Wi-Fi.
Это постоянная проблема с тех пор, как консоль была выпущена еще в 2017 году, и Nintendo до сих пор не смогла выпустить обновление программного обеспечения, которое устранит эту проблему.
Но хорошая новость в том, что некоторые пользователи нашли обходной путь решения этой проблемы, и его очень легко развернуть. Как оказалось, вы, скорее всего, можете решить эту проблему, зайдя в настройки Интернета на консоли коммутатора и изменив технологию безопасности на что-то другое.
Вот краткое руководство по устранению кода ошибки 2110-2003 путем изменения технологии Wi-Fi по умолчанию в меню настроек Интернета:
- На главной панели управления консоли Nintendo Switch выберите «Системные настройки» в вертикальном меню в нижней части экрана.
Доступ к меню настроек системы
- Как только вы окажетесь в меню «Настройки системы», выберите вкладку «Интернет», затем войдите в меню «Настройки Интернета».
- Затем ваша консоль начнет поиск доступных сетей. Когда вы увидите список возможных подключений, выберите в нем свою домашнюю сеть.
- В меню, соответствующем вашей домашней сети, войдите в меню «Изменить настройки».
Изменить меню настроек
- В меню «Свойства», соответствующем домашнему Wi-Fi-подключению, перейдите на вкладку «Безопасность».
Доступ к вкладке Безопасность
- В меню «Безопасность» выберите любой тип WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) WPA (Wireless Protected Acces), если вы не оставите его на None — это основная причина, по которой вы можете ожидать появления кода ошибки 2110-2003. .
Примечание. Если у вас уже выбран WEP, выберите другой тип защиты, эквивалентной беспроводной сети. - Наконец, сохраните изменения, пытаясь снова подключиться к вашей сети, чтобы увидеть, успешно ли завершилась операция.
Если та же проблема все еще возникает, перейдите к следующему потенциальному исправлению ниже.
Метод 4: переход на Google DNS
Если ни одно из возможных исправлений ниже не помогло, вам следует серьезно подумать о несогласованности DNS (адреса доменного имени). Существует множество отчетов пользователей, подтверждающих, что переключение на диапазон DNS, предоставленный Google, было единственным, что позволило им исправить код ошибки 2110-2003.
Если вы подозреваете, что действительно имеете дело с несогласованностью сети, следуйте приведенным ниже инструкциям, чтобы переключиться на адреса DNS, предоставленные Google:
- В главном окне консоли Nintendo Switch выберите «Системные настройки» (значок шестеренки).
Доступ к меню настроек системы
- Как только вы войдете в меню «Параметры системы», выберите вкладку «Интернет» в меню слева, затем перейдите в правое меню и выберите «Настройки Интернета».
- Затем ваша консоль начнет генерировать список всех доступных подключений Wi-Fi. После того, как список будет полностью заполнен, выберите ваше соединение Wi-Fi из списка (в разделе «Зарегистрированные сети»).
- После выбора правильных сетевых настроек выберите «Изменить настройки», затем прокрутите вниз до меню «Настройки DNS». Затем установите в меню значение «Вручную», чтобы вы могли редактировать DNS.
Изменение адресов DNS
- Теперь в разделе «Первичный DNS» нажмите и удерживайте кнопку B, чтобы удалить текущее значение, затем добавьте 8.8.8.8 и нажмите A, чтобы сохранить конфигурацию.
- В разделе «Вторичный DNS» нажмите и удерживайте кнопку B, чтобы удалить существующий вторичный DNS. Затем удалите существующее значение, как и раньше, добавьте 8.8.4.4 и нажмите A, чтобы сохранить изменения.
- Попытайтесь повторно подключиться еще раз и посмотрите, успешно ли оно на этот раз.
