    If you use the steps I put above, you can clear the alternative MAC address and then generate a new one. This may fix the issue.

    Another one which the console can generate. What message are you getting that is requiring you to need one?

    Mac is what I meant. My phone autocorrected. I just need a MAC address. I’ve reset the router. The Xbox was reset. I cleared the cache. Nothing

    Hello Hunter! I'm Kris and I'd be happy to help you with your question.

    You can set an alternate MAC Address by going to the following option on the Xbox:

    1. Press the Xbox button Move right to the System
    2. Select Settings Scroll down to Network Select Network Settings
    3. Select Advanced Settings
    4. Select Alternate MAC Address.

    From there you should be able to generate a new one.
