    netflix causing xbox to lose network


    for maybe the past 2-3 weeks, netflix app seems to consistently cause the xbox to lose its internet connection and the result would be the nw-2-5 error or other similar ones. no other app would cause the xbox to lose connectivity. (Although I have seen prime video do this once or twice). my network is working the whole time while Netflix is trying to connect but booted the xbox off. as soon as I quit out of Netflix, the xbox reconnects to the network like nothing happened. load netflix and boom xbox loses connectivity. it's like clockwork that netflix app does it. I've done the usually stuff. hard reboot. reboot router for kicks. all the same. the only thing that makes it work OK for a few times is if I reset Netflix which forces me to login again. it would work maybe 3 times then the issue would be back.

    I've already reported this a few times in xbox. quite annoying given that Netflix had been working previously with no issues for months.

    dude... I was struggling with the same issue for the last 2 weeks.
    Network fine, open up Netflix... and network error, IP address lost (static IP even does not work) - i'd say the entire network adapter suddenly just stopped working.

    It was... the HDMI cable! I guess it caused some kind of weird interference. I still can't believe it, but I can confirm - try changing your HDMI cables and your issue might disappear.

    No Audio with Netflix

    Amazingly and unintuitively this has to do with the HDMI connection on the Xbox. Try this: Play a video on Netflix and while it is playing unplug and then plug in the HDMI chord on the back of the Xbox. By all means this should not only affect one program,
    but for whatever reason a weak connection in the back of the Xbox causes Netflix to lose audio without impacting the rest of the system.

    Downloading on Xbox Series X knocking out wifi network

    I've had a similar issue. Regardless of hardwire or wireless connection, when my XBox connects to the network and starts downloading/installing any games it causes all other devices on the network to essentially lose connection

    0x87dd001a caused by Amazon Prime

    We've had an issue where the Xbox One loses connection when Amazon Prime is streaming anything. Did a hard reset on the console, rebooted my router and modem, updated router firmware, isolated my console on my network, and even requested a new IP from my
    provider, just in case.

    Netflix, Crackle, Pandora, SyFy, CW and Plex all work just fine. Only Amazon Prime caused this error after a minute or two of viewing.

    Reasons Behind Removing Shadow of The Tomb Raider From Xbox Game Pass

    It is sad when we lose a game from Game Pass. It's similar to Netflix's movies. Xbox and the developer make an agreement on the inclusion of their game. Sometimes like Netflix we'll lose something we've been waiting to binge.

    can't connect to xbl

    Hey there Giustivia!

    Is it only netflix which are causing you to lose connection to Xbox LIVE? If so, Try delete netflix app and reinstall it. If this doesn't work try one or more of the following solutions.

    Make sure your router firmware is up to date (visit manufactures website and see if there is a later version available).

    Restart your network equipment



    • Turn off your Xbox 360 console and any network hardware (for example, your modem and router).
    • Wait 30 seconds.
    • Turn on your modem, and wait one minute.
    • Turn on the next piece of hardware (for example, your router), and wait another minute.

    If you are connected wireless try a wired connection. If you don't have a modem built in router try connect directly to your modem to determine if the router is causing this (reset Xbox network settings back to the default).

    If your still stuck. Could you post back in full detail the information from the
