1. Restart the System

Mostly we recommend our readers simply restart the console to check if that helps or not. The chances are high enough that restarting the system clears any kind of system glitches or cache issues completely. Once rebooted, try updating the system again. But if this method doesn’t help you, follow the next one.

2. Check your Internet Connection

Checking the internet connection is an easy task for a PC or console user if there is something causing trouble to connect to the server or game doesn’t download or the system update isn’t starting or even completing, etc. If you’re using a Wi-Fi network, try using a wired (ethernet cable) connect or vice-versa. This will ensure whether there is any kind of issue happening from the internet connectivity or not.

If the internet connection seems okay with the wired connection but the Wi-Fi connection isn’t giving a proper signal strength or enough speed, then make sure to perform a power cycle to the router by following the steps below.

3. Power Cycle your Router

Power cycling your networking device is useful if you’re having issues with the internet connection. It basically clears the temporary glitch or cache from the networking device or system from the router. To do this:

Sometimes lose connectivity or drive not detected properly by the system can cause several issues with the game saves, downloads, installs, system updates, etc.
