Windows 10 can't see xb1 at all even with manual IP. Same network and everything, whats up?

XB1 was set to strict NAT. I fixed it and it's now in OPEN. Now I can connect it to my pc for streaming. Looks like it being in strict NAT caused the issue.

Thanks.

FIXED!!!!!

what I did was I made it so the xbox was connected to the network through the old power cycling method, then I checked what ip address the xbox wanted when on automatic... lets say for example it wanted 192.168.1.777(also the same as my first laptop hooked
up to network) well I then assigned the xbox to go to manual ip address and assigned it the ip address of 777 the computer reassigned itself to for example 776 then I turned off everything and turned everything back on and now the xbox has its own ip address
that it wants so everything works perfect

Hi,

No DNS is not the issue here its just that you can't connect to the wireless network at all, until you can connect to the network it won't get an ip address or a DNS address, even if you manually enter an address it won't help because it isn't connected
to the wireless network.

The router issues the Xbox an ip address and DNS settings, but it won't until has connected to the network first which it can't at the moment.

Hi Adam,

The IP that you're getting is what's known as a Reserved Private Address and will be on the range of 169.254.x.x. This occurs when the static IP doesn't take and the device (in our case, the XB1) can't retrieve a valid address from a DHCP server.

If this is occurring, it suggests that either the XB1 networking configuration isn't being recognised or that the manual configuration is taken, but the XB1 defaults back to DHCP after it fails to contact the gateway.

Either way, there's two method's to assign a static IP and if the MAC has been configured in your router for a DHCP reservation, then there shouldn't need to be any configuration at the end device. You should only need to configure a static IP address on
the XB1 if there is no DHCP reservation on the router and you're trying to assign an address OUTSIDE of the DHCP range.

i.e. DHCP Range is: 192.168.1.1 - 192.168.1.99

But you want the XB1 to be 192.168.1.100

This is weird man. When I start up it says that I cannot connect as usual. I can even wait a while, like 5-10 min without doing anything and I still cannot connect.

When I go into network settings, it has my network selected, but IP address and all that other stuff is all zeros. I would normally restore to factory settings and reconnect to make it work. But I waited like 10 seconds then all the information filled in
by itself, I tested and it worked. I'm going to put it all in manually and turn off to see if I have the same problem.

Thanks for the help so far.
