    I've tried unplugging for a little bit, restarting, and factory reset, but nothing is working. I just got it a month ago brand new. It connects to my hotspot but not my home Wi-Fi.

    Xbox series s disconnects and won't reconnect to wifi saying password doesn't match when it does

    Hello Stoop14mc , My name is Khaji I am an independent advisor and I will be happy to help you today.

    I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing Wi-Fi connection issues with your Xbox Series S. Here are some steps you can take to try to fix this issue:

    Check your Wi-Fi password: Make sure you're entering the correct password when trying to connect your Xbox Series S to your Wi-Fi network. You can check the password on your router or ask your Internet provider to provide you with the correct password if you have forgotten it.
    Restart your router: Turn off your Wi-Fi router and disconnect it from the power source for a few minutes. Then turn it back on and wait for it to reboot completely. Once the router is online again, try connecting your Xbox Series S to the Wi-Fi network.
    Forget Wi-Fi on Xbox: Go to the network settings on your Xbox Series S and look for the option to forget the Wi-Fi network you're trying to connect to. Then try to connect again by entering the correct password. This can help resolve incorrect authentication issues.
    Check Wi-Fi signal strength: Make sure the Xbox Series S is close enough to the router to receive a strong, stable Wi-Fi signal. If you are far from the router, the signal may be weak and cause connection problems. Try moving the Xbox Series S closer to the router and see if that fixes the issue.
    Update your router's firmware: Check if firmware updates are available for your Wi-Fi router and, if necessary, update it to the latest version. Firmware updates often fix compatibility issues and improve connection stability.
    Reset Xbox Series S network settings: If the above steps do not resolve the issue, you can try resetting the network settings on your Xbox Series S. Go to the console's network settings and look for the option to reset settings network. Please note that this will erase any custom network settings and you will need to reconfigure your Wi-Fi connection from scratch.

    Is it normal that there is some internet issues on the xbox series s and can i fix it

    It used to work
    "some internet issues" is pretty vague but try restarting your Xbox series s and if that doesn't work forget your Wi-Fi network then re-connect to it? lastly maybe try an ethernet cable?

    How to get wifi key to xbox one?

    Your router won't allow a device to connect to it's Wi-Fi unless the password is entered.

    Are you saying the Wi-Fi password contains more characters than the XB1 entry box allows?

    Why is my xbox series s disconnecting from wifi?

    Hi
    My name is Rishabh an Independent Adviser, I hope you are doing great out there. I’m happy to help you with your question.

    Experiencing Wi-Fi connectivity issues on your Xbox Series S can be frustrating, especially when accompanied by error messages. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the problem:

    1. Restart the Console:

    A simple restart can sometimes resolve connectivity issues. Turn off your Xbox Series S, wait for a few seconds, then turn it back on.

    2. Check Wi-Fi Signal Strength:

    Make sure your Xbox is within a reasonable range of your Wi-Fi router and not obstructed by walls or other obstacles. A weak Wi-Fi signal can lead to connectivity problems.

    3. Check Other Devices:

    If other devices in your home are also experiencing Wi-Fi issues, it could be a problem with your router or internet service provider. Restart your router and modem to see if that improves the situation.

    4. Forget and Reconnect to Wi-Fi:

    On your Xbox Series S, go to "Settings" > "General" > "Network settings."
    Select your Wi-Fi network, then choose "Forget."
    Reconnect to your Wi-Fi network and enter the password again.

    5. Update Console Software:

    Make sure your Xbox Series S is running the latest system software update. Sometimes, updates include fixes for connectivity issues.
    Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
    Go to "Profile & system" > "Settings."
    Select "System" > "Updates" > "Update console."

    6. Check for System Update Errors:

    If there were issues during a recent update, it could have affected connectivity. Try checking for system update errors:
    Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
    Go to "Profile & system" > "Settings."
    Select "System" > "Console info" > "Update status."
    If there's an issue, follow the on-screen instructions to resolve it.

    7. Hard Reset:

    Perform a hard reset by holding down the power button on the front of the Xbox Series S for about 10 seconds until it fully powers off. Then, turn it back on.

    8. Factory Reset (Last Resort):

    If none of the above steps work, you might consider performing a factory reset. This should be a last resort and should only be done after backing up your important data

    I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

    Thanks and regards
