Xfinity stream app on roku not working

The Xfinity stream app on roku is not working on all three of my devices at home.  I get the error message that I must be on my home wifi to use this which I am.  The roku software is updated and I have deleted and installed the Xfinity stream app on multiple devices and still get the same error (TVAPP-00101)  Xfinity service works fine on the Xfinity box itself.  When I called Comcast, the agent said that this is not their problem!  Any help?  This has worked for at least a couple of years with no issues.

When I called a second time, I was eventually connected to one of the advanced technician who said that this is a "known outage" affecting the Northeast and that engineering is working on this.  Not sure what this really means but at least it was acknowledged that this is an Xfinity problem.  I wonder if this is related to the recent Roku software update...although other people have posted about this issue in the recent past as well before the update.

Good morning, @user_c31f19. 

 

I'd be happy to help and dig more into this for you. Can you please send me a DM with your name and address? I am not seeing any known issues anymore on our end.

• Click the "Direct Messaging" icon or https://comca.st/3iVtu1B

• Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon

• The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person", but don't do that.

Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there. As you are typing a drop-down list appears.

• Select "Xfinity Support" from the list. An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line.

• Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

Hello, @user_890bcd. We recently pushed through an update. Are you able to access the streaming app now? What type of device are you using to access it? 

I no longer work for Comcast.

Same issue -- San Francisco Bay Area location. Advanced support says this is a "known issue" -- gave me a ticket number and promised a text message to alert me when resolved

You just have to wait. They know there is an issue.

My Roku devices have been working perfectly well with Xfinity for years except for the last month.  My Roku devices do not connect to the Xfinity WiFi.  I have read that it's because Xfinity has changed their security settings.  I changed some security settings about three weeks ago to a lower level of security and the Roku devices were able to connect.  About two weeks ago they started to not be able to connect again.  If Xfinity's response is "this is not our problem" it will not be a satisfactory answer.

I had similar issues with stream not connecting with home wifi.  

I read in another post to remove the stream app and then unplog roku for at least 5 minutes.  Then plug it back, reinstall stream app, and see if it works.

I also noticed that in my case, I had two TVs with roku.  One was connecting to the home wifi and the other TV was connecting to another wifi (an extender to my home wifi).  I made sure both TVs were connecting to the home wifi. I also restarted my home wifi modem just to start fresh.  So far they connected back again.

Hi, @Boeblaze. Are you noticing the same issue with the Wi-Fi error message or are you having any login issues? I ask because there's a known issue regarding Roku and our stream app, but it's based on login attempts.
