    Broken wifi chip?


    hey guys my xbox has been having some issues these past few months. I’ll be playing any game and then all the sudden the controller will disconnect and my Xbox will disconnect from Xbox live. I’ve looked everywhere for a solution and even bought a wifi adapter,
    which didn’t do anything. I talked to a rep and she said I have to pay $135. I’m not paying another dime to Microsoft for something they messed up on so is there a third party solution or something I can do myself? I’d like to utilize the $700+ I’ve put into
    this xbox one, (ie all the games, nice headset, elite controller) I thought when i bought this console under a year ago I was buying quality but this has been anything but quality. If there are no cheap solutions I’ll take my money to sony. Thanks!

    :)

    slim broken wifi???

    Yeah, there is always that option, will be a quicker solution than repair but will obviously have a cost involved.

    Just remember as long as the console is under warranty you should be entitled to a repair or possibly replacement from retail. Also maybe best to get it fixed/replaced in-case it could lead to other issues within the console.

    Try opening up the mainframe of the Xbox with a screwdriver. Then switch out the wifi chip with a new one

    Xbox One Losing Connection to Wireless Network

    Tried switching my gateway to bridge mode based on advice on another topic. Still nothing. Very hesitant of trying to connect directly to the gateway. The problem definitely cropped up after the last update, and I'm pretty sure that "boosting" the controller
    connection times probably gimped the chips allocated wifi power somehow. Who knows. Was working fine before update, now broken.

    XBOX ONE Interference with Personal Medical Devices - Need a way to Disable the Wifi or source of interference from XBOX and hardwire

    Again, there will be no way to do this. There are two separate wireless chips, one to connect to internet the other for the controllers, referred to as Wifi Direct.

    Optical Disk Drive can't detect any disks

    That was my original concern but I contacted the previous owner and the warranty was voided long ago, he did a wifi chip repair.

    Connecting LS35X Head Phones to PC without Xbox Wireless Adapter

    because the wireless adapter does not use bluetooth, it uses normal wifi signal. the controllers have a seperate bluetooth chip so they can operate with BT but the headset does not.
