    "Can't get an IP address" - 500$ useless brick


    Whenever I try to connect to Xbox Live on my Xbox One, I get an Error message saying "Can't get an IP address". My wifi is currently working perfectly, and I can connect to my wifi on 3 separate laptops, and my Xbox 360. This is extremely frustrating, as
    it's clearly a problem with my Xbox One. I've restarted my modem multiple times, hard restarted my One about 30 times, and this problem is still occurring. I disconnected from the network, re entered my password, etc, and this problem is still not resolved.
    This has been occurring for about 3 days straight. So once again, i'm stuck with a useless 500$ brick. Thanks Microsoft for once again managing to *** up, as this is my 8th problem i've encountered with my One so far. If anyone can help me with this issue
    it would be greatly appreciated because as of now my Xbox One is as good as a pile of ***.

    :)

    Problems with N wireless Adapter and Belkin Router/Modem

    [quote user="Kiku DarkRose"]

    You still get ip address failed when wireless WEP/WPA security and wireless mac address filters and turned off and your Xbox ip address is set to auto?

    Yes.

    [/quote]

    Then you will have to report the issue to Belkin as you can't fix this yourself. It needs to be resolved in firmware

  5. as above said some routers want you to allow the new device before it will let it recieve internet.

    Try opening the ports required to play on xbox live.

    You will have to type it in google and you should get a guide on how to do it.

    Its called port forwarding.

    What isp are you with by any chance i ask because i have sky and there router is terrible to work with.

    I have tried every single step to resolve this issue that they suggest, and my Xbox still can't "Find an IP address. Port 3074 is open on my router, the mac address of my Xbox One is currently not being filtered, and I manually entered my IP address, Subnet
    Mask, Gateway, Primary and Secondary DNS settings of my router into my Xbox One. I assume the wireless is broken on my Xbox One, and i'm probably going to be exchanging it at Best buy and reinstall all my games :/ I guess i'll just stick to GTA Online on my
    360 for a while untill this issue is resolved. Thanks for the useless brick Microsoft.

    Also some more info, my Xbox One's wireless was working perfectly fine for about 2 months and then out of the blue I randomly started having the issue stated above. Nothing was changed with my router/modem settings to incur the issue that i'm currently facing.
    I'm quite puzzled with this one.

    Have you tried just assigning your console an ip (Staticly) ? assuming you have the standard ip scheme you could pick an ip that wont have a conflict like 192.168.1.65. And just to be clear your wifi isnt working perfectly if it wont hand out IP's. Ive seen
    companies like Verizon put a limit on connected devices on the internal settings of the router, regardless your routers DHCP isnt functioning. I have to ask ......have you tried turning your router off and on again?

    I have completely restarted my router and reset everything, and it still won't work. I have ATT and they don't limit connected devices. This issue is still not resolved, and it's quite frustrating. I'm about 90% sure at this point that it's a hardware issue
    with my Xbox One.

    Well , id statically assign an IP again and delete any DHCP Leases tied to that MAC address, that will most certainly fix this issue if your wifi card was broken you wouldn't pull SSIDs to even request an IP from. Also im not sure how you were able to do
    port forwarding to open port 3074 without having an IP to assign it to unless you opened it to your whole router. You also may want to try resetting your router to manufactures defaults and starting over
