      Possibly. If you are connecting with Wi-Fi I would check your router and verify it’s using 2.4 ghz n. You can also try connecting with a Ethernet cable and see if it works that way.

      You can just login on the 360 with your account. You can only login to 1 console at at time. If you are downloading the monthly free games with Games with Gold, then the 360 games should show up on your 360 and not on your One.
