    Hello NathanFredericks,

    Thank you for your post. I understand you are experiencing an issue with your Xbox One after clearing the alternate MAC address. Please try performing a

    power-cycle     to correct this. If the issue persists, visit this article for additional help:

    Troubleshoot Network Connection - Xbox One    .

    I hope this helps.

    Xbox says wifi password incorrect but is. Connects fine with wired connection.

    Ok so I just cleared the alternate MAC address and now wifi connects. Hopefully intoning else will happen.

    Can’t Clear Alternate Mac Address

    Been having the same issue for a while. Ive tried everything. Seems to be fine if i connect the Xbox wired directly into the router. But if you try to find a network it picks nothing up and doesnt allow you to restart your mac address.

    Connected to Live, but online games won't connect?

    Some questions:

    1. Are you using an alternative MAC address?

    2. Are you connected over wifi?

    If yes, try removing alternative MAC first. There is a bug with the Feb update that breaks using an alternative MAC over wifi when connecting to games but leaves everything else intact. I was attempting to connect x1 over wifi at a hotel and ran into this
    problem. I corrected by removing the alternative MAC address.
