Ok so I went into Internet settings and did the connection test and it says its successful. But then it says I'm not online so I can't add any friends. Can someone please help me? Thanks
The friend thing... play a game that uses online functionality (like, ACNL) and then while in the game, hit the Home button and add them, since it should say you're on the internet.
I went on ACNL and tried to open my gates at the train station but it doesn't work. Then I went on Friends List and it says I'm offline even though it says "internet" in blue
Nah, this is the server.
Me and a potential trader tried to trade not too long ago, and we're both experiencing this, too.
Looked it up, and apparently both the 3DS and Wii U servers are affected right now.
