There are two ways to connect your Xbox to the internet: wired or wireless. Both methods are simple enough and will allow you to unleash all the possibilities of Xbox Live and play with your friends over the Internet.

Steps

Method 1 of 3: Connect Xbox One

  1. 1 Connect your Xbox One to the internet. If you want to connect your Xbox One, then follow the instructions at the following link. These methods are generally similar, but there are some differences.

Method 2 of 3: Wired connection

  1. 1 Use an Ethernet cable. The Xbox 360 ships with an Ethernet cable, which you will need. You can also use any other cable that is compatible with your console. Pay attention to the length of the cable, it should not be too short.
  2. 2 Connect Ethernet cable. You will find a cable jack on the back of your Xbox 360. Plug one end of the cable into this jack and the other into your router or directly into your modem. Make sure the cable fits snugly in the socket.
  3. 3 Turn on your console. Once you have connected both ends of the cable, you can turn on the console.
    • You can turn on your Xbox 360 by touching the sensor on the front panel or by pressing the Home button on your controller. You can also click on the eject button and the console will start automatically.
    • After downloading, the console will automatically connect to the Internet.

Method 3 of 3: Wireless connection

  1. 1 Wi-Fi access. Xbox 360 can easily connect to a wireless network. The console has a built-in Wi-Fi adapter that will automatically connect to the router.
  2. 2 Turn on your console. When you turn it on for the first time, the console will not be able to automatically connect to the Internet because the appropriate settings have not yet been made.
  3. 3 Connecting a router. All available Wi-Fi points will be automatically shown in the network connections menu. As soon as your router appears in this list, select it and you will be able to connect to the Internet. You may need to enter a password depending on your router settings. From now on, the Xbox 360 will save the router settings and will automatically connect to the Internet on the next boot.
    • If your console has a wired internet connection, what exactly will it be used. If you want to use a wireless connection, then just disconnect the cable.
    • You may need to further configure your connection if your console cannot connect to the Internet. If in doubt, put everything on automatic or reset to default settings.

Tips

  • Connecting with a cable provides a better connection.
  • To access all the features of Xbox Live, you may need an Xbox Live Gold subscription.

Warnings

  • To connect wirelessly, you must have a slim version of the Xbox 360. Otherwise, you need a wireless adapter for the Xbox 360.
