: Xbox one won't work with powerline ethernet adaptor

Or you could use powerline adaptors.

They basically turn your powerlines into a wired Ethernet connection

I've used them a couple of years now because 2.4Ghz wifi is absolute crap.

You plug one into a power socket near the router then connect it to the router with an Ethernet cable.

You plug the other one into the wall near year xbox then connect that via Ethernet. This basically gives you a wired connection. Not necessarily as good as a real wired connecting but unless you have bad wiring in your house it is usually 1000 times better
than the standard 2.4Ghz wifi.

The only workaround I could find is connecting an ethernet switch between the adaptor and the xbox which stops it going into power saving mode but I had to stop using that because it seems to knock about 20megs off the speed.

My ISP doesn't supply powerline adaptors so I would have to pay for a new one out of my own pocket. It would be annoying buying a new one only to get the same problem with that.

It is only the xbox that has problems with the power saving mode on the adaptor. All other devices that use an adaptor work fine

Powerline adaptors basically turn your house electrical wiring into Ethernet cables.

If you don't have any problem wired now then you probably won't have any problems with powerline adaptors as you will still technically have a wired connection. Although if there is something wrong with the wiring in your house there may be problems.

Although this thread is nearly a year old so you may be better off starting a new thread and asking for help on getting your wireless working properly as if someone can help you with that you may save some money.

also if your modem is too far away from your console to connect easily via an ethernet cable a Powerline Adaptor can give you the reliability of a wired connected without needing a long ethernet lead

powerline adaptors work well. you run them via your plug sockets and then run a cable to the xbox.
