What causes the 006-0612 error and how can I prevent it?

What causes the 006-0612 error and how can I prevent it? - Frame with text placed on blackboard with sterile mask

I've played Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate online for many months without a problem. After taking a break from it I decided to play again recently, but I've been unable to play online at all.

I can connect to the servers just fine, but whenever I try to join another player's room, I'm met with error 006-0612 and I'm booted back offline. When setting up a room, people who join have the same problem. Discussions on the internet seem to offer various solutions such as dynamically/statically get an IP address or DNS, but nothing has worked for me. Why does this happen and how do I make it not happen?
