WiFi Connection Issues.

@bro1011 The nice thing about the DNS setting is it's easy to change back. Once you select the Manual Setting you can either contact your ISP for a DNS Server or enter the Google DNS. For Google your primary will be 8.8.8.8 and your secondary will be 8.8.4.4.
If it doesn't work you can go back into the Settings and switch it back to Automatic.

WiFi Connection Issues.

@GnomishNinja I didn't know what I would be getting into if I were to manually set the DNS so I let it on automatic. Should I maybe try the manual seeing as it is in the "Can't connect to Xbox Live" support thread?

Same. My Xbox has never had a wired connection. Only wireless.

Hey there,

You mention that you are using a WiFi booster and you are getting a DNS error. You might want to try making sure that you are set to Automatic DNS. To do this follow these steps:

1) Go to Settings

2) Network Settings

3) Select your Wireless Network Settings

4) Select Configure Network

5) Make sure DNS Settings are set to Automatic.

6) If they are not set to Automatic, change them and then test your connection.

If you’re having issues with Wi-Fi, try connecting your console to the internet via an Ethernet cable. If your console connects, then you may need to update your router’s firmware. Check your router’s instructions for how to update your firmware. (Many routers
feature an abridged guide on the device). Follow the steps, and then power your console on and see if you can connect wirelessly.

I hope that this was helpful if only in a small way.

Another thing i forgot to say in the question is that whenever it tells me to rest my wireless hardware it will not show any network name and the only thing i can do is put in a ssid but even when i do that it wont work

Try to delete your cache by holding down the power button until it shuts down and then restart that might help
