Wasn't home during the day, I came back only after the Splatfest had already started. I tried restarting the Switch, my router, etc and nothing worked, so I just gave up after a while trying. It's a shame because I was really looking forward to it. What's weird with my Switch is that it recognizes my router just fine, it just refuses to connect to it. The thing has a mind of its own, it only connects when it wants to. No idea if it's a software or hardware issue on the console itself or if it has something to do with my router.

How far away is your Switch from the router? I find whenever mine refuses to connect while docked, pulling it out and moving it next to the router gets it to connect and stay connected when I put it back in the dock.

Pretty close to it, actually. The router is right in the next room from my bedroom. I tried connecting while literally standing in front of the router and it didn't work. As I said before, the network shows up just fine, it just won't connect (It even shows full signal too!). If I try to connect to my phone (As a hotspot), it connects instantly, so I think it's something to do with the router specifically. If I leave the console on for a while it will usually connect by itself, but it's pretty hit or miss.
