Check your internet connection
First, check your wireless router and internet connection in the place your Xbox is.
If your other devices are connecting fine, it could instead be that your Xbox isn’t connected to the internet.
Your Xbox Series X, or Series S, can only connect to one wifi network at a time.
Connecting to a new one disconnects it from the previous one, and all the details are forgotten.
You can reconnect your Xbox under Settings.
Open the menu, by pressing the Xbox button, and go over to the Profile and Sytem tab at the right of the list.
From here open Settings, then General and then Network Settings.
From here, Set up a wireless network by selecting your wifi router name and entering the passcode.
This should fix your problem!
Now your Series S should be connected to Xbox Live! Source: Xbox
