Error code 018-0512

[toastia]

It's a very bad error code O_O
All of the fixes don't work for me because of my router. ACNL is know for having issues with my type of router, and it's to the point where I have to buy a new router for it to work.


REALLY? JUST REALLY?

UGHHH i am having the same problem (well my code is 018-0511). i commissioned some art from someone and i cannot get her the payment is it is SO frustrating! i've tried all the solutions, too, and i'm pretty stuck. nothing's working.

at this point i'm about to go to starbucks or something to do the trade.

It's a common code which indicates a malfunctioning Nintendo network. Re-opening the gate and restarting the Wi-Fi on your DS seems to help.

You can probably fix it if you know how to port forward your router.

I've called Nintendo, they w=run me through all the fixes. Afterward, they said there was nothing more for them to do.
They just lost 40$ of profit, cause I'm definitely not buying my second copy now -_-

this.

i only got this error code once (and it freaked really freaked me out as something like this had never happened to me before) but flicking off the 3ds wi-fi and re-starting my router helped. i still don't know what exactly caused this error as i've been online multiple times before without any issues but whatever.

i don't mean to step on your toes but i honestly don't think nintendo's the only one to blame on this one if it's your router type that's been known to cause issues.

I'm not blaming Nintendo, I know that they did their best. I'm blaming my router choice. I'm only 10 so I can't just go to my parents, "I need to buy a new router which was working great just so I can play Animal Crossing!"
I dont mean to sound pushy, but I do that when I'm aggravated

then i misunderstood and apologize. it just seemed to me like you were blaming nintendo because of the "lost $40 profit" and "definitely not buying my second copy now." maybe it was lost in translation or i mistranslated, idk.

i definitely understand you're aggravated. is there a possibility for you to go online in other places? school, libraries, starbucks, mcdonald's? i know it's not the perfect solution but it was my internet junkie life savior after i moved out of my parents house. (my provider wouldn't move his damn derri?re to deliver my router.)

I tried a different place, but instead of an error code I got a "Somethings not right here?"

Also, I know how you could misunderstand me when I said that. I was saying that I wouldn't buy a second copy now because it would be just as useless for online trading.

I've pretty much quit buying/trading/selling because of issues. I'm not going to buy new equipment just to get ACNL to work. Some people don't know about these errors and continue to think they are being scammed. So very frustrating.

I think there's something wrong with the Nintendo network. (Unless someone suggested this.. I didn't read all the replies.) I never got that error until today and it seems like a ton of people are having issues with it today.

Edit: Oh, yeah I had that error with you today as well. I had it with 3 other people also since.

The people where I can't visit that I'm paying money to, I've been letting them into my town instead and it's worked out that way.

I never have errors, or if I do, it's the other person - 9/10 it is. I don't think it has ever been my side.

Does this problem only occur on Mondays? Or every time you try to trade and stuff?

 

[memmy]

ooh i've never ever got an error :O

 

[Hype]

I don't usually get errors, but every so often I do. It's an easy fix though because all I have to do is flip the wifi switch on and off on my 3ds and it usually works after that.

I got an error today, it was my first one with New Leaf. After I tried again it worked, though. Sorry you guys are having consistent problems I used to have the same problems with WW and CF, my routers were never compatible or whatever.
