My network stopped working out of nowhere and its saying i need a MAC address

Hello,

I've been trying to install it with a cd on my xbox one s and it doesnt work as soon as it says its installing it stops out of nowhere and i only have this problem on it

I don't know what cmd is... I have a mac and I dunno if its different. I found the IP address by clicking network preferences and it says "this computer is connected to the IP address ..."

I've reset the network settings on my xbox multiple times and thats never worked. But I will try again

There are no service alert up, I think its related to your xbox or internet, You may want to try clearing the MAC address on the console

To clear the MAC Address - Go to settings. All settings, Network - Advanced network , Alternate Mac Address - clear

Also I would do a network test and see how your internet is doing. It may not meet the required amount needed to play or function properly

It would be better if try and communicate with your boyfriend and tell him to either configure his computer as a network bridge (bridge) and not ICS. Or, if he needs a work-around for his console's wireless connection, he could easily spoof the MAC address
of his computer (being the 802.1x supplicant) and assign his computer's MAC address to his console, as its alternate MAC address. The MAC address of his computer should be the one network card that he uses to connect to his college network.

ICS is a great way for a host to share the connection to other devices on the same network, but not for gaming consoles, as it add an additional layer of NAT, and a poor implementation as well.

ReducedBoot3,

What you will need to do is get a device connected such as a laptop, tablet, or phone. Once that is connected, go into the settings for that device and find its Wireless MAC Address. Once you have found the Wireless MAC Address, on the Xbox One go to Settings
> Network. Go to Advanced Settings and select Alternate MAC Address. Enter the Wireless MAC Address of your device in here. After entering this, the network will now see the Xbox One with the MAC Address of your connected device and it will be able to access
the internet.
