Warning: When you boot custom firmware (CFW) on your Switch console, the console becomes permanently "online-unsafe". Turning off Airplane Mode while unsafe has a risk of gettinf the console banned from Nintendo's online services (including eShop and game updates). This risk is reduced if you are sensible and only use mods on offline games (don't install NSPs or pirate games!)

If you never went online while in "online-unsafe" mode, then by restoring a clean NAND backup that you made ''before'' you ever booted into CFW, you can make the console "online-safe" again. You can then safely go online until the next time you boot into CFW.
