Hey everyone, I’m really struggling with my Xbox Series X because it just won’t connect to Wi-Fi anymore. A few months back, it started randomly refusing to connect, even though it shows that I’m connected. Whenever I turn on the Xbox, it tells me to connect to the Xbox network, but it says it can’t connect to my wireless network and suggests restarting my router. That worked for a little while, but then it started happening again and wouldn’t reconnect no matter how many times I restarted the router. I’ve tried swapping DNS servers, cleared the MAC address, and even factory reset the Xbox, but that only temporarily fixed the issue. Now all my attempts to forget the network, re-enter the password, or perform hard restarts just lead to a frustrating wait of 20-40 minutes before it finally connects, if at all. I’m running out of options and considering selling it, but I really don’t want to lose a bunch of money. Any suggestions?

It sounds like you’ve tried a lot already, but have you reset the DNS in the advanced settings? Just go to your network settings, select advanced settings, and choose reset DNS. It might help get you back online!
I didn’t see that option anywhere. Is it really in the advanced settings?
