Xbox wireless settings will soon have memory

I’ve always found it odd that the Xbox consoles can only remember one wireless network, especially when Windows PCs and smartphones can handle many at once. Microsoft is making a change to that. According to Tom Warren over at The Verge, your Xbox will soon be able to remember up to 10 networks simultaneously. Making it easier for those who travel with their Xbox and use hotel wifi.

Here’s how Microsoft explained things in the update preview release notes. The feature became available in preview on May 1, 2024.

If you ever connect your Xbox console to more than one wireless network, we have good news! The network settings will now allow users to remember up to 10 password-protected wireless networks. To get started, head to Settings > General > Network settings > Manage wireless networks.

To remember your current wireless network, disconnect first or just set up a wireless network then choose your network from the list again. You will see a new option to remember the network when entering your password.

Once you have some wireless networks remembered, you can navigate back to Manage wireless networks and select Manage remembered wireless networks to Activate or Forget them.
