My XBox1 can't find my wifi, although every other device in the house can. In order to play online, I must hardwire it in. I've gone through all the steps of finding a connection, but it won't do anything. Got it for Christmas. Any ideas on how to get it working again?

Thanks in advance!

I had a Belkin router completely drop off the map for a few of my devices, one of them being the Xbox 1. What kind of router are you using?

I still haven't been able to fully restore wifi service to the other devices, but my xbox 1 does now connect.

I'll have to look when I get home. Crazy thing is, all devices connect but the XBox1.

Might be a defective wireless bit in the Xbox one. Is it picking up other wireless networks like a neighbors?

No - its not picking up anything. It was working fine the night before...that's all I ever played online with.

Right, so why are you trying to connect to wifi? I'm confused. I spent my first 3 weeks with my X1 connected to wifi and it was an awful experience I would not recommend. Never had a single issue since hard wiring it.
