  1. Connecting xbox 360 to a hotspot wifi


    Hello everyone. I have a issue with connecting my xbox 360 to a wifi network at the place im staying at.

    There is a router (Thomson TG784) which is upstairs, that i have access to, and there is also a router downstairs where i live, but i think its just for a signal strength. Anyway, im trying to get xbox 360 to connect to this wifi and i can only get
    connected to network, but internet connection fails. That is probably because it set up as a hotspot, when i use my laptop or tablet i have to enter a login and password to use the internet.

    My friend has a ps3, and all he does is simply try to connect, and then when ps3 fails to connect to internet he just goes into the browser and enters login and password, works without any problems, but internet explorer wouldnt open without the connection!

    I tried different things for a while but nothing seems to work for me, so I decided to post this topic to see if anyone can assist me on this issue. I would be very grateful, because im stuck in this place for another 3 months and it would be nice to at
    least spare some time gaming/watching netflix etc.

    Thank you in advance! And pardon my english Connecting xbox 360 to a hotspot wifi :)

    How to successfully connect to Hotel internet {Xbox 360}

    You could also start a VPN.

    Also could use a hotspot service on your laptop. In which, you would connect to a hotel wifi on your laptop, broadcast your wifi signal out using a hotspot app. Then connect your xbox to the said hotspot from your computer. Then you can sustain connection
    to Xbox Live.

    Connecting xbox 360 to a hotspot wifi

    I don't think you can. You could try connecting it, then opening IE to see if you could log in. Alternatively, you could just connect your laptop and connect the 360 to your laptop, and enable Internet Connection Sharing.

    Using wifi to connect to xbox live?

    I've used wifi hotspots with my laptop many times.

    Just connect the 360 to the laptop using ethernet connection and switch on internet connection sharing on PC.

    Then sign into the hotspot on your laptop and xbox live should then work.

    Problem is that an open NAT is not guaranteed.

    Xbox 360 won't connect to internet without ethernet cable

    What specifically would allow the Xbox 360 Wireless Networking Adapter to connect while the built-in wifi would not?

    My Xbox 360 S detects a wireless signal with 4 bars, and I am testing it while sitting it right next to the modem, so there is no issue with signal strength.

    My Xbox 360 S's built-in wifi is able to connect to a hotspot, and it is even able to connect to my neighbor's wifi from my house.
