    Series X Issue? Hearing little static noises from the power port after plugging in..


    Hey guys!

    First post here and unfortunately it is a worrying one!

    Im a paranoid soul and after plugging the power chord into the power port of the series x I hear little static noises coming from the power port. Is this normal?

    I have the power cable plugged into the wall btw!

    Xbox power cable static/sparking noises

    So i should’ve said the port not slot. Its the power port on the console. Once i put the console plug in the port and it makes a static like popping noise. My guess has been maybe some of the internal wiring broke from bending of the cords which could
    cause the noise

    XBOXSX Ethernet Port 51774

    I'm sorry to hear that the previous suggestions didn't work for you. Here are a few more troubleshooting steps you can try:

    Disable IPV6: Some routers have the option to disable IPV6. Try disabling IPV6 on your router and see if this resolves the issue.

    Set a static IP: Try setting a static IP address for your Xbox Series X on your router and see if this resolves the issue.

    Power cycle the modem: Try unplugging your modem for a minute and then plugging it back in. This will force a power cycle and may resolve the issue.

    Disable your VPN: If you're using a VPN, try disabling it and see if this resolves the issue.

    Check for firmware updates: Check to see if there are any firmware updates available for your router and Xbox Series X and install them if available.

    Xbox ONE Weird noise after turning off the console

    Hey there NightSnake15!

    Sorry to hear about the noise issue. If you think it is coming from the Xbox One power supply, unplug the power supply from the wall and the console and let it sit for 5 minutes. After the 5 minutes, try plugging the power supply directly into the wall instead
    of the power regulator.

    Post back and let us know if that helps! :)

    Hi Jen

    This doesn't either, I've noticed that the sound disappears when it is hardwired to the USB port on the console? Not sure if I'm hearing static noises as it is wireless.

    XBOX Series X - WiFi issue

    I have the EXACT same issue.

    Comcast Xfinity Cable/Modem

    I have tried both 2.4 GHz and 5Ghz

    NAT is open

    Change the channel on both frequencies to a less crowded one

    Port forwarded all xbox live ports

    Unplugged and Rebooted BOTH series x and router

    Setup static IP

    Factory reset series x twice

    In advanced network settings and statistics (when on WiFi) on Series X

    I have 100% signal strength

    Latency is 197ms

    0.01 Mbps download

    0.14 Mbps upload

    51% packet loss

    Series X is 10 feet from the router in the same room

    Nothing works. The instant I plug in an ethernet cable everything is fine, except now I have an ethernet cable cutting the room in half across the floor.

    All other devices (consoles, laptops, iPhones, iPads, smart TVs) are working perfectly on WiFi.

    If someone else has something else to try I would love to hear it
