How do I connect my Xbox one to 5ghz while using an Ethernet connection

HiWhisperdan72, you can connect your Xbox on a 5ghz wifi like all others wifi network, but you need first physically disconnect your Xbox
from your wire. Without that, you will not be able to check wireless network.

Stay safe !

You would need to login to the router and see what password is for 5g and connect to the right one.

If you have it connected via ethernet WHY are you wanting to connect it wirelessly?

Do you plan on moving the console to an area that the ethernet will not reach?

You will get much faster speed with the ethernet cable.

Does your router have the ability to split the bands so that 2.4ghz operates on one SSID and 5ghz operates on another?

If so, you would then connect to the network SSID for 5ghz.

I presume the current ethernet connection is not convenient, hence you wanting to use wifi?

• Does the issue occur when you are streaming without the Party Chat enabled?
• How do you connect your device to the network?
• How many devices are connected to your network hardware?

I am streaming on my laptop while using the chat.

No it does not occur when I'm not using party chat.

With wifi on a 5ghz 802.11ac network.(don't have access to ethernet)

Around 7 devices are connected to the hardware, but my laptop is the only device on the 5ghz band.
