  • factory reset on the xbox? 

    If its just one device having the issue, I'd be looking at that device closer

    Are any other devices having issues? 

    Or just the xbox?

    are you using any special characters/spaces in the ssid/password?

    did you "forget" the network on the xbox and reconnect to it?

    anything else change in the C7800 since you had it wirelessly connected?

      All other devices are working and connecting fine, using same passwords /ssid. I have tried everything I can think of besides factory reboot

  • Did you notice any latency issues when changing to WiFi? My current router courses lag problems on most games when I change to wifi even though I am close to the router. New router on it's way soon so hopefully might be able to dich the cable
