    Wireless hardware issue


    I’ve been having this issue where my Xbox won’t show any wireless network names when I go to connect to the internet. Usually when I turn the Xbox on it connects right away but it stopped doing that. Now I have this issue. I’ve tried clearing the alternate MAC address but when I press restart it won’t do anything. So I checked to see if my Xbox is updating correctly but it says latest status: update failed. So now I’m stuck in a loop where I could try to soft factory reset but would I even be able to log back in with no wifi connection? I’m stuck. Help.

    :)

    Hello, Neil. Thanks for reaching out! My name is Lucas, and I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user just like you. I'll be happy to assist you today.

    First, just make sure that on Profile & system > Settings > General > Network settings you did not select Go Offline.

    After that, please do a power reset on your console and modem:

    1. If you have an external HD, please unplug it and let it unplugged for testing purposes.

    ​​​2. Turn off your console by holding the Xbox button on the front of the console for approximately 10 seconds. Turn off your router too. ​​​

    3. Unplug all the cables (power, HDMI, etc..) and wait 2 minutes. Do the same with your router.

    4. After 2 minutes, plug all the cables in again (except for the external HD) and turn your console and router back on.

    See if this helps and please let me know.

    Hi tobiaspetty,

    Thanks for your post. To continue troubleshooting for this issue, try a
    Soft Factory Reset
    . A soft factory reset will reset the operating system on your console but, keep games and applications installed. Doing this will effectively remove any software issues related to the Xbox console itself which could correct the issue
    with the console being disconnected repeatedly from the internet.

    I hope this helps.

    Maybe the wireless component has just died. Try and get a hardwire connection. It looks like your Xbox will be best sent off to repair.

    Hey there Tobias thanks for taking the time to bring this issue to us.

    We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused but rest assured we are here to help, first things first we suggest clearing out the consoles caches since when they get full might cause this type of errors.

    How to clear Game Cache on the Xbox One:

    Settings

    System

    Storage

    Clear Local Saved Games

    Yes and Restart

    To clear the Network Card Cache (alternate MAC address)

    Settings

    Network

    Network Settings

    Advanced settings

    Alternate MAC Address

    Clear and restart

    IF THE CONSOLE IS CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET no progress or purchase data will be lost, what we accomplish by doing these steps would be to resync the profile to the cloud getting rid of any corruption as a byproduct.

    Give these steps a shot and let us know if we can further assist in this or any other issues or inquiries!!
