Xbox One doesn't prompt for password for wireless network

TwinedVolcano66 · Nov 23, 2017

For about the past month, my Xbox One won't connect to my wireless network. I've had no issue with it at all in the prior 7 months that I've had my Xbox One. My SSID broadcast is disabled, so I enter it manually. When I'm doing so on my Xbox One, I'm not
getting any prompt after entering my SSID name to enter my wireless network password. The Xbox One just goes to try to connect to the network. So what is wrong with my Xbox One that it's not asking for my wireless network password? I'd really like to be able
to use my Xbox One again.

Can't connect to my wireless network from my xbox one.

I can't connect to my wireless network from my xbox one. The wireless network is working on and is connected on other devices. When my xbox searches for active networks my wireless network pops up but when I enter the password it doesn't work. Does anyone
have any recommendations?

How to Configure and test your Xbox 360 wireless Internet connection

After you have connected the Xbox 360 Wireless Connecting Adapter to your original Xbox 360 console, you have to configure and test the wireless connection.

Steps to Follow

1. On your controller, press the Guide button and proceed to Settings, then choose System Settings.

2. Go to Network Settings then select the name of your wireless network.

Note: If you do not find your wireless network, go to Advanced Options and then select Specify Unlisted Network. Proceed to enter the name of your wireless network, after which you will be asked to select the security type.

3. Enter your wireless network password.

4. You will get a prompt to update your console software. Select Yes.

Still Not Connecting?

If you get a connection error message after these steps, you should try using the Xbox LIVE Connection Solution to fix the problem.

I just had the same issue. Press and hold the power button to do a hard restart. In my experience every problem is solved by that I guess haha

Hello!

If you remove the wireless network and try to add it back, does it prompt for the password? I've seen where it's trying to connect to wireless using a wrong password. If that doesn't work, I would try changing the wireless password to a new one and see if
it connects after that.
