For some reason, I can no longer watch live tv or DVR programs on iPad. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, updated & restarted iPad. 

This seems to have been a problem 3 years ago for people, but I haven't found an answer or a fix other than what I've already tried.

Hi there! Thanks for reaching out to us here on Xfinity Forums for help with your Xfinity Stream app on iPad. Are you currently looking to stream out of the home? You may need to make sure to check the filters for On the Go. As some live content may be unavailable on the go.

No, I am doing it at home.  I've been using the app for years; it just stopped loading several days ago.  The app opens, there is no error message but not images or videos will load. 

As mentioned, I have uninstalled and reinstalled; updated i pad, even cleared the app cache; and again deleted app, shut ipad down  and then restarted ipad before installing app again.  No resolution.

Oh and when I did an internet test (speed I think) results said I was accessing over 100% of the internet capabilities so it's not bad internet.  Videos do stream from another app I use so it's specific to Xfinity.

Thank you so much for clarifying that for us @user_06lzb6. Can you confirm what iOS your iPad is on? Are you having troubles with the Stream App on any other device within the home?

It's an iPad 3 Air running the latest iOS (just updated this weekend.)  I have been able to stream Xfinity on my computer (all in one).  Would rather not sit in my office to stream though.

I will have to do that later as I'm not at home right now.
