Error message when signing in to Xbox Live

I have been having problems trying to sign in to Xbox Live. When I turn on my Xbox it takes about 2 minutes for it to sign in but I won't be on live. Then an error message appears saying "A problem has occurred when signing in please try again later" but
then I try again right after and it signs me in. I really want to fix this so it can stop taking forever signing me in. I also have tried clearing my system cache and that had done nothing for me. Please help.

Is XBL down???

My XBO wouldn't sign me into my account. I went to Xbox.com and I signed in but when I tried to goto preferences, I was signed out and given an error message. Anyone know what's going on?

 

Greetings King!

Part from the error message you've posted, do you also get an error code?

Could I have you run through the following steps up front, and let us know how that goes and we'll go from there.
