I have the same problem, XBOX One S won't connect to Netflix. Plus another problem: I can't access Dish Anywhere remotely. I talked to Dish Network Support this evening and I was told they were opening a case file on this because there have been other people who own this modem having the same problem. I too tried the "guest network" workaround to no avail, not to mention that this fix would also slow down the entire WIFI network if it did work. It's too late for me to try to return the modem so I am probably going to have to buy another new cable modem. If that's the case I will leave a scathing review on Amazon. Please TP Link, a firmware update should have been issued months ago.

Hi everyone,

I have a XBOX one. When I switched to a TP-Link Cable Modem TC-W7960, Netflix on X1 stopped working. This was the only streaming service which stopped working. Amazon and Hulu kept on working as did other online games. I reinstalled Netflix, reverted back to factory Xbox settings, rebooted everything 10 times, not to mention called our ISP and had them come out several times. Since this cable modem was rated so highly on Amazon, I did not suspect this router. I finally ran across this thread and enabled the 2.4Ghz guest network. Following these directions: http://www.tp-link.com/us/faq-1154.html

Bingo bango, Netflix started working on my Xbox one.

Best of luck to all who search for answers!

Paix!!!

I have been watching this thread for some time, and decided to make an account and pitch in. I am an advanced techie, but do not get your hopes up, I have no answer here. But, I had a chat with Netflix, I was an early adopter of the company, so I have a little sway with my seniority. I know this isn't netflix's fault, but the lady I spoke to had one of her friends from the tech department pitch in, . He, through her, says to call Time Warner/Spectrum and just say you want to talk to a "T2 Tech Support Agent", and they will realize you mean business, and get someone who will help you without having to turn it on and off, and make sure the power cord is connected and such. He says to have the person monitor your DNS on their end, and check for any system hiccups as you try to connect. Suggest to the rep that a friend said to try and match the DNS from the modem to the Xbox. He also stated that if they refuse or say that is not possible, they are full of it, get a supervisor. He says that the issue is typically with the ISP and not the router, or at least the ISP not understanding how the router works. I kind of agree. Next he instructed that if that bares no fruit, to contact Microsoft, and do the same. Microsoft will be more willing but can only help with your Xbox. Also, the lady said it was very handy to have a link to this forum so maybe try giving whatever customer service people you talk too a link, and Netflix is looking into the issue in the morning from their end, but it is very limited as to what could have changed, as the issue did not flare up around any of their updates. In my honest opinion, contacting Netflix will do nothing for us service wise, but now we have some leverage from the top with at least one ticket open. I have not tried any of this yet, but I will tomorrow, and try to get back to you guys.

What I tried:

Changing DNS on both ends: nope.

Hard wire to router: Works.

Upgraded the Firmware on my own, it just pissed off TWC.

Downgraded the Firmware two points, also just pissed of TWC.

I had an old belkin router I used for playing around with, it was like $15 at walmart. I connected that to my Archer, and made a new network on it, confirmed with TWC that I had a separate router (Important to do that for whatever reason). It actually worked for about a day or two, then stopped, and continued to not work after I reset everything and tried it again. While inconvenient, it is a lead. In my opinion, TP must have some kind of patch release affecting the port, and Time Warner has not noticed it is affecting stuff, or vice-versa, either way, I think this one is on Time, not TP, as they are notorious half-assers.

I am having the exact same problem. Any help here?

Also having this issue, just got a new place. Was using the TC 7610 modem last night and it worked fine.But today i upgraded to the tc-w7960 today(obv for wifi capabilities) and now i can't connect at all. Internet works fine , getting same symptoms as the other people here. I didn't think of it being an issue with the modem. Netflix says to call isp (Comcast) and have them reset the signal which i haven't done because i don't believe that's the issue. Other forums with this issue have stated the issue fixes itself but those are a year old answers at least while this thread is much more recent.

Guest network worked for me, kind of inconvenient. I guess ill try this for a week and if it gets really annoying ill return it.

We had same problem on my husband's PS4. I ended up changing the hard drive to a 2Tb and reinstalled the app. Works just fine.

before doing such us complex troubleshooting, you may try to do the basic like reboot both devices wifi and the TV ..etc then try to do clear cache .. logout your account then relogin.. if doesnt address your concern on to the basic.. you may try this step by step by following the
Solution 6. Set domain name system (DNS) to Manual using Smart DNS proxy on this website.

Netflix nw-2-5 error common issue I often faced. After going through some blogs and forum I find more restarting the router solves the issue and if still finding the problem then re-install the app. If you find step by step guide then this blog on Netflix not working on Xbox one has the steps for Xbox one.

I have also encountered similar cases that have not solved the problem.
