    xbox one controller light flashes and then wifi disconnects


    xbox one controller light flashes and then wifi disconnects
    I have been having this problem on and off for the past month or so. My controller will disconnect along with my wifi and then they both reconnect after a couple seconds usually. It has been on and off some days I can play normally other days it is impossible
    for me to do anything on my xbox because it is constantly disconnecting. I have tried power cycling numerous times, completely unplugging all power to my xbox and power box for some time and reconnecting, wiring my controller, restarting my xbox, resyncing
    my controller, pretty much anything I could find to try and fix it. One thing I haven’t done is hardwiring it to my router but I would not be able to do that anyways as my router is not in direct proximity to my console and I can’t really move it. I have been
    trying so hard to figure out what is causing this and how to fix it. I saw something about maybe replacing the wifi card but I really don’t want to spend the money on that if I don’t even know if that would fix it plus my xbox is pretty old so there’s really
    no point since the new consoles are coming out. Not sure if anyone will be able to help but if you could it would be greatly appreciated if not I guess I just can’t play until I save up for a new xbox:/

    Xbox One Disconnects from internet.

    Yes, unplugged and reconnected everything multiple times. Without fail, controller light starts blinking, then the wifi disconnects.

    Xbox One Wireless Controller Issues

    Yep, same problem, seems to be completely random. Tried it with two controllers, still the same. Took it back to the store and they tested it - fine!

    Got it home, plugged it in (having reset to factory settings) controller dropped out several times as I was setting the Xbox up - so not even connected to the WiFi.

    Tried it with controllers plugged in, with the house WiFi switched off, just kept doing it.

    Then this afternoon - perfect! But nothing has changed in the house.

    What I did notice though is that whenever the controllers dropped out, invariably it disconnected from the wifi as well.

    Something else I have discovered, when the controller drops out and just flashes, the sync button on the side of the x box doesn't do anything. Then give it a few minutes after pressing the button and the XBOX logo flashes once and all comes back to life,
    temporarily.

    Have Microsoft admitted there is an issue with the WiFi cards in the X box one, it seems to me that even if the controller is plugged in, the WiFi card can randomly disconnect it

    Controller will not sync....

    Greetings to the thread! If four green lights flash continuously on your controller you may already have four controllers synced to the console. If you do, you will not be able to sync another controller until you disconnect one. Hope this helps! :)

    Use the Flashing Lights Solution. Choose one flashing light as the problem and follow the steps in the solution:

    support.xbox.com/.../flashing-lights-wizard.aspx

    Try the following steps:

    Disconnect and reconnect all accessories.

    Remove the hard drive.

    Remove any USB flash drives.

    If the above steps do not solve the issue, request a repair
