Device Portal Not Working

OttoBomer · Nov 8, 2021

Hello, I have been trying to use developer portal on my Xbox Series S but it has not been working. When I try to type the IP in my browser, it says it took too long to respond. I have tried multiple browsers. I have pinged the IP using command prompt and it showed that it sent and received four packets with 0% loss. I don't know what to do. Any suggestions are helpful

I have used Wi-Fi and ethernet. I have put in a password and I have also tried many other things.

Hi there Otto welcome to the community forum! Christopher here, an Xbox fan just like you and has been on Xbox for years already. I would really love to make your day by helping you out. Have you tried port forwarding?

port forwarding is directing traffic from the outside world to the appropriate server inside a local TCP/IP network. Internet services are identified by a standard port number, basically that gives you a more direct connection!

Thanks for the reply Christopher! I'm not really sure how this stuff works as I'm just getting into it. What's port forwarding. Sorry if I'm a bit of a newbie!

Hi Blake. My name is Kyle and I'm an independent advisor.

I'm sorry you are experiencing issues accessing the device portal. If you can access it on the console but not other devices, it may be an issue with your router blocking the connection.

Try forwarding port 11443 to your console's IP address in your router settings. For help with port forwarding, please contact your internet provider or router manufacturer.

When you enable dev mode on Windows 10, then enable the "Windows Device Portal", then open Windows Device Portal's Xbox Live tab. If you alter the sandbox value or leave it blank, you will have issues, it needs to be very specific. Put in the value "RETAIL", without the quotes. It'll work and things will go back to normal.
