    Xbox One Wireless Access


    I don't know if this has been asked before so I figured I would ask it prior to making the trip up to the nearest big box store to grab another router.

    I connected my xbox one with an ethernet cable but I was wondering if there was anyway to use the xbox one as a router to connect my laptop

    My reason for asking is I did see you could connect to the internet through my laptop if it was hooked up with an ethernet cable and broadcast it through wireless to my xbox one. I was wondering if the inverse was possible to broadcast the internet from
    my xbox one to my laptop.

    Ethernet -> Xbox -> Laptop

    instead of

    Ethernet -> router -> xbox/laptop

    :)

    Advanced Network Connection Diagnostics... very bad!!

    Update: Xbox One built in wireless card / software is the problem. I pulled the Wireless Access Point off of my Direct TV box and plugged it into the Xbox One. This access point connects to the same router and is located right next to the Xbox One in
    my media cabinet. So, for all intents and purposes, this access point emulates what the Xbox One built in wireless does.

    Just the Xbox 1 wireless : .8 Down , 3 up 20% packet loss

    On the Access Point: 37Mbps Down, 12 up 0% packet loss

    So the only thing that was changed was which wireless method was used, and there are dramatic differences. Personally, I think something got royally *** up during the last Xbox 1 update OR the wireless card in the Xbox 1 is either failing or is just inadequate.

    What is Xbox LIVE?

    Xbox LIVE provides you with the most amazing entertainment experience through the Xbox 360 console. You can download and play games, get instant access to a large collection of games and music, and connect with your friends.

    Wireless connection

    You can connect your Xbox 360 console to Xbox LIVE without the need for any network cables. There is a wireless network in place that your Xbox 360 console can use.

    Requirements
    • An Xbox 360 Wireless Networking Adapter (only available with the original Xbox 360 console).
    • A wireless access point, gateway or router that is compatible with Xbox LIVE.
    • High Speed Internet connection, preferably DSL or cable.

    Note: It is not advisable to use Satellite, 3G or 4G mobile connections due to the possibility of slow performance or lag.

    Absolutely newbie who needs help

    Your Xbox needs access to the internet to connect to Xbox LIVE. Just buying a router won't do anything.

    -

    If you have a Slim Xbox, or a wireless adaptor for an older model, then you'll be able to connect to LIVE provided a) there's wireless internet where you are, and b) you have the password to access it, if there is one.

    Probleme connexion MTU

    Okay, so please bear with me here, as I think something may be lost in translation. So, are there two wireless signals available, one from your university, and one from a person near the university? I think what I'm confused over is whether or not you have
    the password to access that connection. If you can access the wireless connection, you may want to consider a

    wireless adapter for your console    .

    Xbox One Download Speed Issues

    Delete your wireless connection settings this way...

    Set up wireless network

    If your Xbox One isn't currently connected to the Internet, or if you want to change wireless access points, select
    Set up wireless network. Selecting this button deletes any current wireless settings and prompts you to set up a new wireless device.

    Then restart your Xbox and try again.

    Changing wireless mode to "G only" Mode?

    The only way to limit your wireless speed to "Wireless-G" speeds is to manually configure your router's wireless settings. There is sometimes a setting for that, depending on your router. Look into your router model's documentation for instructions on how
    to access those settings.

    The Xbox One does not contain any settings to restrict your wireless speed -- it will connect with the fastest speed possible (Wireless-N).
