I keep getting an issue with the Ultrahub when using nintendo switches. They can see the wireless networks but refuse to connect, currently sat here with two switches and neither will connect. It shows two stages "Console > Network Device > Internet" they both fail going from Network Device to the Internet. The only way to resolve the problem is reboot the Ultrahub, only for the issue to return again in a week or so.
If I try and connect the switch to a different network it connects without issue. This is either a fault with the Ultrahub, or some routing table is storing some incorrect routes which get cleared out during a reboot which is why the issue corrects iteself.
It looks like others have had this fault which has existed for a couple of years not atleast, rebooted fixes it but is a temporary fix and needs resolving.

@Emexrulsier Try going to the DHCP settings and shorten the expiry time to 18 hours. Also consider changing the DNS settings away from the VF numbers to 8.8.4.4 (Google) and 1.1.1.1 (Cloudflare).

Though it feels like its a DNS reolution problem, it isn't restricted to any specfic DNS servers. All DNS servers give the same result. It is 99% a and issue with the router be it, dns, routing table or arp, cache on the router which is cleared down during a reboot which is the cause and which a reboot corrects the problem.

@Emexrulsier Did you have a look into the other 21 threads on this forum that discuss Ninetendo?

Yes which means clearly there is an inderlying issue that has never ever been acknowledged or resolved. A "reboot" is not a fix.
