    Why do my headset and controller randomly drop connection?


    I have done every single piece of troubleshooting available for my console, headset, and controller. Without fail and without rhyme or reason, my controller and headset will simultaneously lose connection when I'm playing a multiplayer game. This issue affects none of my friends, only me. I'm unable to process a service request for my Xbox console for unknown reasons but I feel it has to be the console at this point as I've done everything (I'm now on my 3rd headset and 6th controller).

    :)

    Why do my headset and controller randomly drop connection?

    Thank you for your assistance Josef. I had to play around with the type of issue I'm submitting for service and was finally able to get through but, because it's out of warranty, it only allows for a $299 repair option. Do you know of any alternatives?

    I have an Xbox Series X.

    Hi Trevor, another option if you want to get the console serviced is check in the closest authorized retailer in your city or where original parts are used

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this TrevorSuave

    I don't like to give bad news but if the problem is happening no matter which controller or wireless headset you use, seems to be an issue with the console itself

    In your case the best option is open a repair request for your console, however you say that you can't proceed

    May I know what happens exactly when you try to do that?

    And, what console do you have?

    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.

    Bluetooth headset?

    Idk why they did 2004 wifi for the controllers and not bluetooth like the PS3 did back in 2006. Bluetooth has as big a connection range as you'd want. Now if I go into my kitchen my headset and controller drop out for my 360. Why stick w/an obsolete technology?
