Ethernet on Xbox not working!

Hey there SMEEGLE9018,

It sounds like the port could be the problem, but have you tried other Ethernet Cables or ports on the Modem/Router just to double check?

try to swap the ends of your ethernet connections. this sometimes works for me. it sounds pointless but really can make a difference! what i mean is take the end of your ethernet out of your xbox and the ethernet out of your router as well. then place the
end of the ethernet that was in your xbox in your router . and your ethernet side in your router in your xbox!

hope this works and helps you out! let me know if that worked

I am having the same issue. It has always worked until about a week ago and I cant figure out the issue either. It is not a port because I got a brand new Xbox One today and having the same issues. Switched out 3 different ethernet cables and same result.
Not sure what changed but it doesn't work through ethernet anymore. I have used it this way for many years now so it's kind of strange...

I presume the other end of the cable is plugged into a router? You're not just expecting the xbox to recognise that a cable with no signal has been plugged in?

You will need to check that the ethernet cables you are using are CAT5 or CAT6 as the older cables might not pick up on the xbox.

hope this helps!
