So i've seen the topics and read some forums and what nots, but come on, how ridiculous is it that this NEW console either won't connect or won't STAY conncted to the internet!? What is it what is the REAL problem? I'm sure most of u are like me and have more then just a WiiU. I have a PS3, an Xbox360, a Vita, a 3DS, smartphones, a PC and a Wii all connected to the same ZyXEL PK5000Z Router/Modem and ALL of them work fine, connect, and STAY connected. Along comes the WiiU and at first all looks good, it connected easy with auto settings and downloaded the first patch, I think that first patch messed something up, then it wouldn't stay connected. I would start MiiVerse and one of three things would happen, 1) Kinda connect in a weird basic HTML/script looking page thing, 2) Error codes, or 3) connect and later error code or load new page weird. Netflix will load but then say "having trouble with this title", or "can't connect to internet server may be busy". YouTube had same results where it will load into YouTube and if I leave it MAY load my subscription page but if I move to other areas it says "no videos found". I've actually watched it in the friends list section where it shows not only your online status but ur friends blink online then offline, then online then offline.
This is junk Nintendo and unacceptable to have a NEW console with such oversights as basic WiFi connectivity and as I've read and seen for myself the Overscan issue.
Here's my list of error codes I collected from my WiiU, all of which are not found using the error code look up.

I've tried all suggestions for internet connectivity, I've tried all auto, manual using custom IP and the 8.8.8.8 , 8.8.4.4 DNS stuff (which was slow as molasses) as well as local DNS stuff. All yeild the same result where the WiiU connects but will periodically disconnect and reconnect where all my other gadgets (PS3, Xbox360, Wii, Vita, 3DS, PC, smartphones) STAY connected and all are in the same area. Some like my smartphones, Vita and 3DS can stay connected even when the signal is weak, aka I move away from router. COME ON NINTENDO, GIVE US A QUALITY PRODUCT THAT OUT PERFORMS YOUR OLD TECH. Right now I'd say the Wii and DS's are out performing the WiiU on a quality, workability and customer satisfaction scale.
