  1. Your DNS server can't resolve Xbox live server names.


    I have been having this issue for a few days now, 3 or 4 now at least, i have done everything, from restarting the modem/gateway i have from comcast to simply restoring network settings to factory default. I have done a ping test to xbox.com on my computer
    and i'm losing 75% of packets, i get an error destination net unreachable, i'm in IN-US, the error i'm recieving is Your DNS server can't resolve Xbox Live Server Names. I am not even going to try to contact comcast myself, as they'll either blame my other
    devices which have yet to cause an actual problem or they'll just send a refresh signal to the modem/gateway in which i can do by unplugging it and plugging it back in. I am on a wireless connection and even a wired connection doesn't allow me to connect with
    the same error. the Error status report i get is:

    W:0000-0021

    X:0000-f001

    Y: 0000-0000

    Z:8015-1904

    ID 0002-0002

    L:0015-10f1

    Q:8007-0435

    T:Wireless

    A:10.0.0.56/255.255.255.0

    G:10.0.0.1

    D:75.75.75.75 75.75.76.76

    N:kitty

    S:WPA2

    C:48

    Again, I have been able to connect before without a hitch 3-4 days ago on this same internet connection, then all of a sudden i cannot connect any more because of this. Again, if I try to contact Comcast, They'll either refresh the signal or they'll
    blame my other devices, and I just don't want to deal with that false information. something is obviously happening between Comcast and Xbox that is having an issue, my computer connects to the internet just fine through wired, which is how i'm able to send
    this out now. Again, if i swap the Ethernet cable to the Xbox it does not allow me to connect due to DNS error nonsense. Any Help would be appreciated. I just paid for 1 month of Xbox live and can't even enjoy it because of this inconvenience.

  4. Your DNS server can't resolve Xbox live server names.

    if you can use Manual ip Settings with your isp, could you please try Settings dns to Manual with

    Primary dns Server 8.8.8.8 and

    secondary dns Server 8.8.4.4

    in some cases the isp Forces to use automatic Settings, then it wouldnt work obviously

  7. Contacted Comcast, just as i suspected they wanted to blame my devices and reset the modem, still same issue. when i had issues with world of warcraft, i posted to the forums, got it solved very shortly after, here, losing money that i paid for xbox live
    gold and time i could be using to play on Xbox Live getting nowhere. There's no chance in hell that suddenly comcast won't support xbox live on the same gateway i've had when it was working before on.

    Your DNS server can't resolve Xbox live server names.

    You can try contacting network support to see if they can take you through any basic troubleshooting with your network if you need to.

    They might be able to take you through something that you haven't already done

    BT Home Hub and Xbox Live

    My Xbox hasn't got built in wifi, which is why I'm using an ethernet cable.

    I'm getting the error "your dns server can't resolve xbox live server names".

    My xbox connects to the network but not the internet.

    And I have tried setting Googles DNS servers and the OpenDNS servers, which resulted in it not even connecting to the network

    DNS Error, Your DNS server can't resolve Xbox Live server names.

    No, because it's an Xbox 360 and I would need a WiFi adapter to connect wireless and wired is most.of the time better option, I have also run a diagnostic ping test from my router to the Xbox and even though it shows as being connected to the network, the console received the pings but couldn't send them back to the router, it seems there could be a hardware problem.

    Hello Mario S! I'm Kris and I'd be happy to help you with your question.

    Have you tried setting a different manual DNS such as Googles? 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4
