3ds error code 003-0299. encountered when trying to connect my 3DS to a wifi hotspot hosted by my laptop running Linux Mint (basically ubuntu). note that i don't encounter this issue when connecting my 3DS to a wifi hotspot hosted by my laptop when my laptop is booted into Windows 10. so it's not a hardware issue on any front, it's gotta be a pure software issue.
