How to Connect Internet Cable directly to Xbox 360

Hi everybody.

So recently I've been experiencing a lot of lag on CoD, i.e, whenever I join a game I get 2-bar and 3-bar connections. So I decided to search for some solutions. I read somewhere that I can fix this problem by directly connecting my Xbox to the router using an Ethernet cable. Now the problem arises as I do not possess an Ethernet cable.
Currently, I have a cable through which Internet is supplied (It's a Fibrenet connection, which uses Optical Fibres for transmitting the Internet) and this cable is connected to a router which provides me WiFi.
I was wondering if I can connect my Internet Cable directly to the Xbox 360 without Ethernet cables.
(The cable looks exactly like an Ethernet cable so it can fit into the Ethernet jack of the Xbox, so that problem is covered.)

EDIT : I connected the Internet Cable to the Xbox but when I tested connection, It does not connect to Internet. Help

 

does ethernet xbox one download faster?

I connect all of my consoles to the internet via ethernet cables. It's definitely the way to go.

 

Power off the modem and/or the router that you are using. Connect the either net cable then power them back up. Hard restart your console

 

Did this twice already and it still says “Not Connected”.

 

You might want to try a different cable. I have seen those cables become faulty after being moved from an old console to a new one. I believe this is just due to the cable being in the same place/position for so long and then when moved either a wire breaks
or something.

 

Can you try the cable on a different device (e.g. a laptop or your desktop PC) to check if the cable is defective?

On your router, does that router have indicator LEDs on the network ports to check if the router detects a device connected on that network port?

If you have checked the cable to be working and the network indicator lights on your router say no device is connected, it might be that your console's ethernet port is defective, and you need to
get the console serviced.

 

Had a similar issue. My ethernet cable worked/still works on my original One but not the S or X. The solution was to buy a cat 6 ethernet cable.

 

Try connecting a new cable and restarting the modem when you do.

 

Hey there SkyLe!

Sorry to hear that you're dealing with this issue connecting with the console.

I just wanted to add that if changing out the ethernet cable doesn't do the trick , you might want to take the console back to the retailer that you got it from and exchanged or look into getting it serviced by our

device support and/or with assistance by our
customer support agents.

Hope this information is helpful.

Keep us posted

Thanks!
