Xbox One Won’T Connect To Internet Troubleshooting

Xbox One Troubleshooting: Network Connection Issues

If your Xbox One is failing to connect to the internet, it can be a frustrating experience. Fortunately, there are a few potential causes that you can check and troubleshooting steps you can take to attempt to resolve the problem.

Xbox One Won't Connect to Internet

Causes of Xbox One Network Connection Issues

Here are some of the most common causes of network connection issues on the Xbox One:

Router Malfunctioning

One of the most common causes of internet connection problems is a malfunctioning router. Here are the steps you can take to reset your router and attempt to resolve the issue:

  1. Shut down all connected devices.
  2. Turn off both your modem and router and unplug the power cables from both devices.
  3. Wait approximately 30 seconds.
  4. Plug the power cords back into both the modem and the router, but do not turn them on yet.
  5. First, turn on your modem and wait for all the lights to stabilize.
  6. Next, switch on your router and wait for all the lights to stabilize.
  7. Turn back on your connected devices and check if the internet connection has been restored.

Network Congestion / Throttling

If your internet connection is slow or unreliable, it may be due to network congestion or throttling. Network congestion occurs when there is too much traffic on the network, causing it to slow down. Throttling is when your internet service provider (ISP) intentionally slows down your connection during peak hours or if you have used a significant amount of data.

To check if network congestion or throttling is affecting your connection, try running an internet speed test from another device that is connected to the same network. If the results show that your connection is slow or unreliable, you can try the following:

  • Connect to your network using a wired connection instead of Wi-Fi.
  • Close any programs or applications that are using a lot of bandwidth, such as online games or video streaming services.
  • Contact your ISP to inquire if they are throttling your connection and if there are any ways to improve your service.

Software Glitch

If you are experiencing intermittent connection problems, it may be due to a software glitch. Attempting to restart your Xbox One can resolve this issue. If the issue persists, you should perform a hard reset by following these steps:

  1. While the Xbox One is on, press and hold the power button for five seconds until the console powers down.
  2. Wait approximately 30 seconds.
  3. Press the power button again to turn the Xbox One back on.
  4. Attempt to reconnect to the internet.

Bad Wi-Fi Board

If you have tried all of the above troubleshooting steps and your Xbox One is still not connecting to the internet, it is possible that you have a faulty Wi-Fi board.

Xbox One Wi-Fi Board Replacement

Replacing the Wi-Fi board is a more complex repair, and it is recommended to consult with a professional repair technician or contact Microsoft support for assistance. If you are comfortable performing repairs yourself, you can purchase a replacement Wi-Fi board and follow the Xbox One Wi-Fi Board Replacement guide on iFixit.com.

Please note that if you attempt to repair your Xbox One yourself, you may void the warranty.

Additional Tips

If you are still having trouble connecting your Xbox One to the internet, you can try the following additional tips:

  • Make sure that the Ethernet cable or Wi-Fi connection is properly connected to your Xbox One.
  • Check the Xbox Live service status to ensure that there are no known outages or issues.
  • Contact your ISP to inquire if there are any issues with your internet service.

If you have tried all of the above troubleshooting steps and your Xbox One is still not connecting to the internet, it may be necessary to contact Microsoft support for assistance. SalvationRepair also offers a limited lifetime warranty on all repairs.
