BuckFly Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 It doesn't even detect a wifi signal coming from anywhere, so it is hard to even try and work out the problem. I will call Xbox today. The kicker? My 2 year Geek Squad warranty expired yesterday. @Pikachu Round yellow head with eyes welled up in tears, indeed Pika. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikachu Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 That sucks. Hope, it doesn't cost too much to fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodimus Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 contact them anyway they might beable to make an exception and extend coverage. It is worth a shot. But don't call them demanding they fix it just call looking for help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But don't call them demanding they fix it just call looking for help. You are absolutely right, and I was planning on that, but also...no worries, I absolutely wouldn't go in with guns ablazin'. I still want to check with xbox at lunch if I have some time. If nothing works I will call and ask, or possibly even stop by at my local Best Buy. It is really close. Hell, Rodi and Pika, if they will still take it I may even just do the upgrade if they would be willing to do an upgrade. Edit: btw, not one problem ever with this X1S...she's been good.

Brian Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I had a similar issue with the Xbox One X and a hard reboot fixed it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skillzdadirecta Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 The Wifi on my O.G. Xbox One seems to be spotty at best... I have all of my consoles wired though now except for the PS3 in my bedroom (which is still kicking even though the Bluray drive is done... DVD'S play fine though). I bought an X1S for my parent's house that is wifi only though. I hope that lasts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hard reboot and the wifi comes back on. Funny thing is it used to happen all the time now it is rare that the wifi isn't working. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Xbox in my bedroom used to do it all the time too. I've wired it since, but maybe they fixed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomCat Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 simple firmware upgrade probably fixed it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurdyb1 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Hopefully it's a simple fix. Keep us in the loop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser_Soze Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Yeah was going to suggest a hard reset as well. Sometimes stuff on the xbone stops working. Just recently my controller refused to sync with the console. A hard reset fixed it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spawn_of_Apathy Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 My One X acts like the Wifi does not work from time to time. I just choose the reboot option from system option, which is the same as a hard power cycle of the system. When it finishes booting back up it connects to my wifi again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had that issue for a while, literally had to restart once a day. Saw somebody suggest increasing the DHCP lease time on the router, which fixed my problems.

I should have done that. i ended up unplugging the Xbox, after which it worked fine. I'm glad it is find, but was almost hoping for a trade in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coincidentally, mine was with the bedroom Xbox. truthfully it is used mostly for apps (our tv their is an old panny plasma from 2009), but when the wife isn't around it is convenient to game there.
