However, starting with version 9.9 the firmware will check if the system is up to date, and if not, refuse to allow you to use the browser. Currently in order to use Browserhax your firmware must be lower than 10.3.0-28. The firmware version of your 3DS can easily be determined by selecting the System Settings icon and checking the bottom-right corner of the top screen.

Firmware is updated as time goes on just like any major product, with higher numbers being newer versions. If you don't want to update but still want to use online features or access the eShop, you'll need to use ctr-httpwn (found on the Homebrew Launcher) which allows you to bypass system updates.The firmware is the operating system that the 3DS runs on. It's still best to wait awhile before updating - those on /r/3dshacks typically say to wait until smealum - the guy behind the 3DS Homebrew launcher gives the all clear. Custom firmware (CFW) is not affected, but if your console's system firmware is on 11.4, and you don't have CFW installed already, you will not be able to install it. You'll need to find an alternative homebrew exploit to continue using Homebrew. Q: Regarding homebrew/custom firmware, any changes I should be aware of? A: Soundhax (homebrew exploit using the Nintendo 3DS Sound app) has been fixed. Q: Behind the PR veneer of stability, what does this actually fix? A: Slowdowns on The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D caused by version 11.3 have been fixed. Q: Should I update? A: If you don't care about homebrew/putting custom firmware (CFW) on your console, by all means.
