    Default Xbox One broadcasting a wireless network?!

    I need some help with my Xbox One. My iPad lost internet connectivity and ive realised that my Xbox One is broadcasting a wireless network with the same name as my superhub. The iPad is connecting to this no matter what i do.

    Why is the Xbox broadcasting a wireless network in the first place? And hiw do i turn it off and still connnect to my suoerhub wirelessly?

    What makes you think it's the Xbox broadcasting a wireless network? As far as I'm aware this isn't a function that is built in to the Xbox One and I can't see any settings in any of the menus. Are you sure it isn't your Superhub broadcasting on 2.4 Ghz and 5Ghz at the same time?

    Thanks to x_Mr_C_x

    If it's like the PS3 then you only need to disable remote start in the settings.

    I thought it was the Xbox as the duplicate wireless network vanished when I unplugged the Xbox. I recon it could have been the Chromecast but the network didn't vanish as soon as I unplugged the power from the Chromecast. I'll have to rename the Chromecast to something else to rule it out permanently. I was losing the plot yesterday with this one!
