    Why are my controllers randomly connection and then never connecting again?

    Hi,

    connect the controller with a USB C cable with the console.

    Go to the controller settings and click on the 3 dots below the picture.

    You can update the controller there.

    controller doesn't connect when I turn Xbox on anymore

    I have never had any connectivity issues with the Xbox one controller, but since the February update my controller randomly disconnects. I have tried everything to remedy this and nothing works apart from connecting a USB and sitting about a couple feet
    away from the TV

    Controller won't sync

    Aka Scratch, that's a big problem if you are using Smartglass on a tablet or phone, which makes me wonder if that is why my controller drops randomly on a fresh charge of play and charge batteries...even connected via cable.

    Xbox one disconnecting from wifi every 1-5minutes

    Does you controller disconnect as well?

    I have the same problem, whenever I am using an online connection for a game, my wireless connections just randomly drops, could be as quick as 1 minute or as long as 45 minutes. Also my controller disconnects along with my wireless connection.

    Strict NAT. Will not open after trying all options. Losing my mind.

    Having the same issue out of nowhere. Now randomly when I turn on my xbox it will not be connected at all. Then I go to connect and it will only do a moderate or strict. I will reset my router and then sometimes it will go on open. A few days later if I
    turn it on again it is on moderate or strict. I have a day one edition and this has never happened before until recently. My 360 gets a constant connection just fine as well as my other wireless devices.
