    Not accepting my wifi password


    I tried downloading a game from the store yesterday. Halfway through it kicked me off of Xbox live. Now every time I try to connect to wifi it won't recognize the password even though I know the password is right. Any suggestions? Please help!

    :)

    Hello Vergil! A few things to try.

    1. Go to Settings > Network > Go Offline > Forget Wireless Network

    2. Power Cycle to clear the cache (Press and hold power button for 10 seconds, Remove from detach power plug and give the Console about 30 seconds then reboot)

    2. Go back to Network Settings > Add a Connection >and Scan for Wireless devices by Pressing Y

    3. If you found your Wireless network add it and sign back in.

    4. If not manually add it and type in the SSID.

    Note: if issue persist, Power cycle the Router by turning it off and detached for 30 seconds or so. Do the same to the console and try the step again. Please let us know if this works or by verifying this post.

    Hey Samuelhemker! Are you able to connect to the network using a wired connection? Give that a shot and let us know how it goes!

    What type of Security method are you using to secure your wireless network, WEP, WPA, WPA2?

    What type of encryption method are using, along with the security method, WEP/TKIP, AES/CCMP?

    Make sure you have WPS (Wifi Protected Setup) disabled on your wireless router. Manually setup your wireless security.

    If you go to your consoles network settings and "detailed network statistics" what is your current signal strength?

    Xbox One (Again) not accepting Wifi/ Wifi-Password.

    This is an old thread, but I've seen this problem a lot while playing Iron Banner/Trials of Osiris/Crucible in Destiny on my Xbox One. This guy found and caught some cheaters that seem to cause these symptoms here:

    www.reddit.com/.../i_was_ip_booted_from_a_match_in_trials_of_osiris


    Bungie acknowledged this issue and should be dealing with the cheaters swiftly in this weeks updated published 5/29/15 here:

    As some other members mention above, clearing your MAC Address may be a resolution to getting back online, but it's always worked for me to just hard restart my Xbox One by holding the power button until it restarts
