Why wont my xbox connect to my wifi

My xbox wont connect to my wifi but my phone and everything is goood

Hi Shianne Tuthill, sorry you're experiencing this issue with your WiFi! I can understand how frustrating that must be.

It sounds like there may be an issue with your Xbox Series S network settings.

Try these steps:

1. Forget the Wi-Fi network on your Xbox and reconnect by entering the password again.

2. Restart both your Xbox and router.

3. Make sure your router firmware is up to date.

4. Test connecting using a wired Ethernet connection to rule out Wi-Fi issues.

If none of this works, consider contacting your internet service provider to check for problems on their end.

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

Hello Hinson87,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

We understand you are having issues with connecting your Xbox One to your Wi-Fi network. Let's work on this together and sort this out in timely manner for you to get back to gaming.

There are a few possible causes for this problem, such as a faulty network adapter, a corrupted system update, or a misconfigured network setting. To narrow down the issue, please try the following steps:

- Reset your network settings on your Xbox One. To do this, go to Settings > Network > Network settings > Advanced settings > Alternate MAC address > Clear > Restart.

- You also try this: Go to Settings, Network > Network settings > Advance Settings
On the screen, please select the Alternate port then change it to Manual.
Then select the second port number on the list.

- Try connecting it to your network using a wired Ethernet connection to see if that works. If it does, then the issue is likely with the Wi-Fi adapter and you may need to send the console for repair. For the meantime, you may also want to use wired Ethernet connection.

We hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and please let me know how it goes.
