Xfinity Stream Beta stopped working
I've had a Samsung smart tv for some time now with the Xfinity Stream Beta app installed and working fine. All of a sudden, I've started receiving a notification that says "This device can only access Xfinity Stream on your in-home Xfinity network. Use the app on your smartphone...." Its been working flawlessly for months.

the stream app will need to be uninstalled from your Samsung and then unplug the TV for 3-5 minutes. then plug the TV in and reinstall the app and be sure to agree to the terms and conditions. working?

Me as well, I get as far as the loading screen once youve typed in the code displayed. Then it fails.

How do we submit a tech ticket to Xfinity Dev?? This is systemic bug they need to know about.
Thanks!

There is an issue in a database. call 800-Comcast, select tech support for cable TV. ask the agent to transfer you to the app support team. ask the team member to reprovision your streaming device entitlements. if someone talks about sending a hit to your home equipment they do not understand. this is for app/streaming website. if the team member seems confused ask for a supervisor.
edit: are you using the same username on both?

It is a known issue with the app on smart TVs and they are working on a fix. No timeline for when it will be pushed.

there would be hundreds of posts about it if it was a nationwide issue. do you have a working set top box installed and working in the home? did you try a smart phone/tablet and the stream app to see if the stream was right on a different device? are you getting error messages on your TV screen?
