So I've been trying to play Mario Kart online for the first time for the last couple of hours and I haven't finished one race without "a communication error has occurred". I've tried 2.4ghz and 5ghz WiFi networks (my router is also five feet from the Switch), changing the DNS settings, putting the Switch in DMZ and making sure it's showing Nat Type A, playing in Regional and Worldwide... nothing helps.

If I get a LAN adapter, will it be better? Is there anything else I can try?

Pray that Nintendo hires some infrastructure people before the service goes paid.

Mario Kart has pretty spotty servers but they seem to be especially bad today. I've seen multiple people disconnect from lobbies all at the same which doesn't normally happen.

I doubt a LAN adapter will help much for DCs unless you have a really lovely wifi signal

Lol if you think Nintendo will make a Metroid game ever again.

There will be a Metroid game made by the perverts who made Catherine.

It will be so poorly reviewed that Nintendo will cancel every upcoming game based on their IPs except for pokemon citing "our brand just isn't compatible with modern gamers' tastes".

The one guy stating the obvious "maybe we shouldn't farm our games out to people coated in dry semen" will be thrown off the roof.

Mario will become an iPhone app store exclusive. Nintendo will liquidate and the Japanese stock exchange will crash. Everyone will die of starvation.

This is how bad Nintendo is at listening to fans.

the same guys that made Catherine made a game where cheating on your girlfriend(s) will result in them beating the poo poo out of you on valentines day. They're also really good at making games, they aren't your average Gearbox or Chucklefish

are you loving serious about mario though? their stocks would go through the loving roof if they announced that mario will be iphone exclusive from now on. investors are all over that garbage.

Try moving the Switch dock further away from the router and see if that helps, as silly as that sounds. A lot of routers have a variable deadzone up close.

LAN adapter will probably help otherwise, unless you've just been incredibly unlucky so far and played with a whole grip of hosts will lovely connections (Mario Kart 8 uses P2P with one player hosting everyone else.)
