Hiya,

The first time I tried out a Friend Code match (against Slick, as it happens), it worked fine.

But the second and third times, against Vader and worMatty, have kept failing with a "Code 86420" error.

I use a Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector.

Any help?

What does, "Code 86420," mean?

Nobody knows.

Nintendo says:

"Error Code: 80000-89999

I know that s2K has had some trouble in the past with doing friend code matches. Maybe he'd know?

Hmm... according to the NSider forum, it's a firewall error.

Nobody knows.

Nintendo use error code because they're, "more understandable." Go figure.

@Paul.Power
Makes, models and firmware versions of *all* hardware involved would be helpful.

Well, we've ended up getting Matty to open up all his router ports to his DS.

Worked for a while, then something silly happened.

But at least we're getting somewhere
