    My Xbox tells me I have to have additional authentication required to test network and connection, I hit autinticate now and it takes me to a blank screen. I've cleared the alternate Mac address hopeing that would work but it didn't

    - Delete alternate MAC address
    - Use your router's MAC address

    - Contact your ISP for help

    How do I fix the additional authentication on my xbox app

    Hello, JoVanny. I'm Arturo, and I'll be glad to provide guidance with your inquiry today.

    I'm sorry to hear that the HDMI port on your Xbox is not working.

    Not only that, but I regret to inform you that as you're not able to use the remote play feature, first you may need to fix the HDMI port on your Xbox before trying to verify your identity.

    Verifying your identity requires re-enter your credentials on the console, this can't be done remotely.

    I know this is not the kind of answer you were expecting, but I hope it helps in some way.

    Kind regards,

    Arturo.

    Issue with Authenticate Now option

    Hello SeanSpear,

    Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that your console is not able to connect to the hotel's network due to an authentication error message. There are some hotels that require you to use a web browser before you can connect to the
    network. The web browser will take you to a website for the hotel that has you authenticate the device before it connects. Did you have to open a web browser on your cell phone before it connected to the hotel's WiFi? We suggest reaching out to the hotel's
    staff in order to discover if there is additional authentication that is needed for your devices to connect to the network. Be sure to let us know the results!

    How do u fix additional authentication needed

    Hello!

    I'm a Independent Advisor. I will be glad to help you.

    One of the possible reasons why a console cannot connect to the Internet is because its MAC address has been blacklisted by the router, i.e. someone may have configured the router so that a particular device does not consume bandwidth.

    Formatting the router to its factory settings may help.

    You can also try a reset by keeping games and applications on the console to rule out that it is a console problem.

    Go to Settings>System>Console Information

    And restart keeping your games.

    Note that the console accounts will be removed, so you will need to have the email and password for each account to log back in.

    Your progress, achievements, purchases and other data will remain intact, don't worry about that, you won't lose any data, the only thing you need to do is to log in again.

    I hope the information has been clear, I will be attentive to any questions you may have.

    Best Regards.
