    Xbox One DNS isn't resolving Xbox server names


    Last night power went out for some reason. Got up this morning Xbox would not connect. Was on last night so I found this odd. Ran through all the support suggestion still didn't work. Everything else is fine computer, cellphones, etc. I tried wireless as
    well same result. I live in central USA and have comcast. Never had this happen before. Any suggestions?

    :)

    DNS isn't resolving xbox server names

    It happened out of no where.

    We unplugged our interent router whilst in the midst of doing some wire/cable management and my Xbox was on during the process. Once everything was all plugged back in, I came back to my xbox saying it was offline (for obvious reasons).

    However, it did NOT automatically reconnect once our router was back up and running. And then when I manually went and selected the wifi network I usually had it on, it gave me the message: "DNS isn't resolving Xbox server names" - Which at this point might
    as well be the red ring of death because nothing seems to fix it...

    So began the trouble shooting...

    I played with the DNS settings; manually changing them to Google's servers, my routers servers, recommended servers online... none of them worked.

    I dug up the ol' CMD prompt and looked up IPCONFIG/ALL to get a reading on all the IP addresses and DNS's. Those DNS's didn't work either...

    **Keep in mind that EVERY other device in the house works just fine with the internet/wifi, its JUST the xbox that is having this DNS issue.**

    So I eventually came to the point of doing a soft factory reset; meaning I kept all my games and apps downloaded on the xbox but deleted everything else. It worked! for about 10 minutes and then disconnected again while in the middle of doing some updates...

    I REALLY DO NOT want to do a full factory reset seeing as it takes forever to redownload all my games. Besides, it seems as though this problem will persist even if I DO do a full reset...

    I have a feeling it would work with an ethernet cable, but I currently don't have one long enough (and I really prefer to not have a ridiculously long cord going across the house).

    To those of you who took the time to read through all of this, I thank you for your time and I will be absolutely grateful for whatever advice people could have. I pick up Destiny 2 tomorrow and am rather heartbroken that I will not be able to play it.

    dns isn't resolving xbox server names

    Hello,

    Once again there still problem connecting Xbox app to server Toredo..

    Since last update insiders build n°14971, there still impossible to connect to the server and as result it say always "Bloqued".

    Toredo is qualified and connected but server won't be connected....

    I tried every solutions from the support xbox app without success..

    It's very enoying and don't know how fix that problem.

    Build 14965 was the first build since long time who worked again well with multiplayer features and who was connected to the server.

    if DNS is still an issue, try going in and setting the DNS manually. 8.8.8.8 is Google DNS for example. I have my router set to use this vs my ISP DNS.

    Hi Franky,

    Thanks for coming to the forums with your issue with connecting wired. You can try clearing the alt mac address on the Xbox. Go to settings>network>network settings>adv. settings>alt mac address clear and restart. You can also try the

    network connection troubleshooter.

    1. Step 1- choose my console cant connect to internet
    2. Step 2-No I get an error message
    3. Step 3 select your error and follow each step afterwards.
    Try these and let us know.

    Try performing a hard reset EXACTLY like this. Hold the power button on the console for 8 seconds or until the power shuts down completely.
    Unplug the power cord from the back of the console for 5 minutes.
    Plug the power cord back in and restart the console.
