If it's Error Code 86420, then it's the Router/Modem Firewall blocking a successful connection.

Or you have been banned from Nintendo Wi-Fi in that game. Not saying you did it but lately nintendo has been running scans lately.

When this happens,
i usually just shut the wii off and wait for like 5-10 minutes.
After that, it works..
always done this and it always worked for me.

Restart your modem and/or your router. Then, reboot your Wii or shut it off completely for like a few minutes or an hour if possible and you shouldn't have any more troubles. Maybe your router/modem is getting sick and tired of having to deal with Nintendo connections to here and there. That happens to me from time to time and I just stop playing until like the next day cause I usually find something else to do within the next ten minutes.
