    Has Microsoft not addressed the Series X (maybe S?) dropping 5GHz Connections?


    I’ve seen multiple posts on different Reddit communities as well as the Xbox/Microsoft Forums about the Series X dropping 5GHz internet connections, but having no issues with 2.4GHz connections. I was able to replicate this issue, as well as compare it against my Xbox One X, which didn’t lose its internet connection while connected to 5GHz internet.

    While it seems a large number of Series X users are experiencing this issue, I haven’t seen any announcements or acknowledgment of the issue on Microsoft’s end.

    Xbox One X upload speed is terribly slow but upload speed is fine on every other device

    Hi heres a thought you might wanna consider. My router has a 2.4Ghz and a 5Ghz connection I usually game on my 5ghz for gaming purposes and I get around 40mb/s to about 60mb/s on my xbox one X. 2.4ghz does runs a lil slower. Does your ISP offer two bandwith
    connection through your router? If so that might help.

    My xbox series x can not connect to 5g wifi i share my mobile hotspot in 5g it does not appear in the connection list but if i chgane it to 2.4g it will show and connect normaly

    Hi SnFoR E, my name is Adam.

    I’m sorry to hear that you’re having trouble connecting your Xbox Series X to a 5GHz Wi-Fi network. Based on the information you provided, this could be due to a number of reasons, such as network interference, outdated firmware, or incorrect security settings.

    Try resetting your network settings on the Xbox Series X. Here’s how you can do it:

    1. Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.

    2. Go to Profile & system > Settings > General > Network settings.

    3. Select Advanced settings > Alternate MAC address > Clear.

    4. Restart your Xbox Series X and try connecting to the 5GHz network again.

    If this doesn’t work, you can try the following steps:

    1. Check if your router firmware is up to date. If not, update it to the latest version.

    2. Make sure that your router is broadcasting the 5GHz network and that it is not hidden.

    3. Try changing the security settings on your router to WPA2-PSK (AES) and see if that helps.

    4. Move your Xbox Series X closer to your router to reduce any potential interference.

    I hope this helps you get your Xbox Series X connected to your 5GHz Wi-Fi network.

    Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns!
    Adam.

    Kinect on series x

    I don’t think so. The Kinect was dropped fairly quickly last gen and you even needed to buy an adpater to use with the S and the X. So maybe? But I have yet to read anything about it being on the Series X.
