Does anyone has any experience with the wiFiControl Device Capability on Xbox One? I am working on an app and I need access to WiFiAdapter.

Whenever I deploy the app on my Xbox One and request access to the adapter using the following way:

var result = await WiFiAdapter.RequestAccessAsync();

The result I get is always WiFiAccessStatus.DeniedBySystem

I have added the necessary device capability in the app manifest:

<DeviceCapability Name="wiFiControl" />

Also, in the UWP features that aren't yet supported on Xbox is written that WiFi Direct is not supported, but nothing else related.

Does any one have any hints that might help get access to the wifi adapter?

Thanks!
