Restart the console
- Who:
- you.
- How:
- hold the POWER Button for three seconds, select Power Options and then Restart.
- Result that matters:
- whether the code appears again doing the same thing.
- If it does not come back:
- note where the console was; the signal may have dropped once.
- If it comes back:
- move the console closer to the router.
- Evidence to keep:
- the exact code and whether it came back after the restart.

Move the console closer and remove interference
- Who:
- you.
- How:
- take the console out of the dock and place it within 10 to 15 feet from the wireless router while you test. Move filing cabinets, speakers, power strips, glass or cordless phones away from the console and the router.
- Result that matters:
- whether the connection test passes with a stronger signal.
- If it passes close to the router:
- signal strength or interference is the likely cause.
- If it fails even next to the router:
- continue with the network restart and a new connection.
- Evidence to keep:
- where the console was and the result of each test.

Restart the network and try the other band
- Who:
- you.
- How:
- restart the router and other network devices. If the router supports 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, set up a new internet connection on the band you were not using.
- Result that matters:
- whether the connection stays stable during online play.
- If it stays stable:
- the router or band was the cause.
- If it keeps dropping:
- contact the router manufacturer about a firmware update or a factory reset.
- Evidence to keep:
- which band you used and when the drops happened.

What it means
Nintendo explains that 2110-4011 indicates the console lost its connection with the wireless router or access point while using an online feature or service. It names three typical reasons: moving too far from the router, a weak wireless signal, or the router being powered off. The steps are a console restart, getting closer to the router, a home network restart, moving metal objects and electronics away and trying the other wireless band. Persistent router problems go to the router manufacturer.
