How To Fix Nintendo Error Code 005-4305?


Fix 1: Check Nintendo Server Status

  • Go to the Home menu.
  • Choose the System Settings icon.
  • Then choose Internet Settings.
  • Then choose Connection Settings.
  • Under the connection settings screen, choose the connection file, and then choose Change Settings.
  • Then choose the right arrow, and then choose DNS.
  • On the following screen, where it says “Auto-Obtain DNS,” choose No, and then choose Detailed Setup.
  • Then choose Primary DNS, then you need to hold down the left arrow to delete the existing DNS (it defaults to zeros).
  • Then enter 8.8.8.8 and choose OK to return to the DNS screen.
  •  Then choose Secondary DNS, and then enter 8.8.4.4 and choose OK twice to return to the Edit Connection Settings screen.
  • Then choose Save.
  • Then choose OK.
  • Then choose Test to begin the connection test.

Fix 3: Power Cycle The Router

The next workaround you need to try is to power cycle your router and modem, and try again.

  • Power off your router and modem by unplugging the power cable from the wall outlet.
  • Then Wait for around 2 minutes.
  • Then plug in the power cable back into the wall outlet.
  • Once the router and modem restart, connect your console to the internet.
  • Now check if the error still persists.

Note: If the error still persists then try connecting the console with a different internet connection, be it another wifi connection or any mobile hotspot. If the error gets resolved over another internet connection then contact your ISP.
