  1. Xbox 360 Slim won't connect to WiFi in one room


    I bought this 2 years back and for a year it worked great. Then we moved and it wouldn't connect in our bedroom, but will connect in the garage, living room and other bedrooms, but not our room. The garage is farther away from the laptop I have the wifi
    coming off of then our bedroom. Our phones work in here... I just don't get it. We can't even go into the advanced settings under Wireless Settings because as soon as we click wireless it tells us we need to connect a router. It picks up the wifi on it's own
    everywhere else, so why should I have to buy a router for this room? It's driving me crazy. Help please?

    :)

    Controller Issue and Xbox One Placement

    Well, the xbox one uses WiFi direct to connect while the Xbox 360 uses other technology.

    In short, the design of the Xbox One and the WiFi hardware card on the console has been problematic for many as far as controller connection. My response is, do what works best and maybe consider re-arranging the room and rooms adjacent so that any WiFi
    interference is eliminated entirely. Also consider plugging in the xbox one vs. using a WiFi internet connection.

    Xbox360 Slim wireless problems

    Same problem here. My new xbox 360s connects to my network via internal wifi but it will not connect to xbox live. Everything else in the house connects fine. My xbox even connects when I plug in the old Adapter( from my last xbox) meaning the issue is with
    the internal wifi. This is one reason I bought a new xbox slim(internal wifi) this is BS!

    new xbox slim wont connect to wifi

    Hi just bought a brand new Xbox 360 slim 4gb and having the exact same problem. Can connect to live straight away using an Ethernet cable but won't connect using the wifi. The console finds my wireless network fine but after putting in the password fails
    to connect. Very frustrating.

    wifi adapter

    Im pretty sure that you cant use the old wifi adaptors with the xbox 360 slim because the internal wifi connection utilizes wifi-N, the newer standard of wireless connections and may not properly interface with the xbox 360 slim.

    As for getting a better signal.... i dont think it really makes a difference, most issues regarding that usually are environmental issues surrounding the 360 and nearby access point or the router. For instance having thick walls, microwaves, other computers
    running wireless, etc.
