Cannot connect to dchp server on Xbox one


Recommended Posts

Hi chaps, just bought some power line adaptors, connected it up to my netduma, as my Xbox one is quite far from router, and am getting the above response on the Xbox, I want to change the network to the to link hard wired, bit can't change it.

So I have netduma/tp link adaptor/ wired to xbox1.

 

Hope this makes sense, its trying to connect directly to r1, but need it changed to tp link.

So your setup is:

 

R1>power line adapter>TP link>Xbox1  ???

 

Are you getting internet from the power line adapter?

 

Did you restart the TP link?

 

Did you restart the Xbox1 and go through network setup again?

The easiest way to get a powerline adapter working is to connect one to an outlet and the other to closest outlet in the same room, then press the sync button. Once they're synced, you can move them into their needed positions. Should work then. 

 

Try syncing them in the room wear the netduma is so you only have to move the powerline adapter to the room with your tp link.

Yeah tried that, read the instruction Manuel where it said it. Strange, picked it up, but kept saying connecting, even when I was in the room where the netduma is, and the main adapter was.

I've had some weird powerline adaptors in the past too.

 

I had a set of TP link ones and I couldn't get them to do anything, spent hours trying.

Swapped them out for some Develo (I think) and they worked first time. Develo ones didn't have any 'sync' features or anything, I literally 'plugged + played'.
