Controller flickers between connected and disconnected every second on PC.

Hi Y.N._280. My name is Kyle and I'm an independent advisor.

This could be a Bluetooth issue, have you tested if this issue happens when using a USB cable instead?

Thanks,
Kyle

Sadly it's not any better, but perhaps worse.
I've had a whole day of testing the controller with the cable connected to the controller without batteries with no issues whatsoever. However, I closed the whole PC down last night, woke up the next day and turned the PC on. I was about to start playing and sadly the controller has started doing the whole "briefly disconnecting intermittently every 30 seconds or so" once again.

It has come to this that no matter what I do, the process always somehow reverts back to the old habit of not being able to stay connected, or disconnects once connected intermittently. I've gone back and checked all the necessary moving parts are updated and it turns out everything is up to date. So I'm at a loss.

If you notice four blinking lights on the wireless controller, it means there is a connection problem between your controller and the console. Fixing the problem involves disconnecting and then re-connecting your wireless controller to your system.

Hi if you have any wires connected disconnect them then power the controller on at the back of the controller is a small round button press it for 10 seconds then on your pc go onto devices and find device if it shows up click connect then turn of your xbox
one using the button on the console.

Hope it helps

The controller has not been de-syncing. The console literally disconnecting every 5 seconds so i can't even stay connected in any apps long enough to stream anything.

The xbox is connected directly to the modem. I've tried multiple things with the modem too.
