Xfinity Stream Beta Not working on Roku TV

I go to xfinity.com/authorize and enter the code, the site says successful but then the Roku TV says I need an account. I already have an account, I noticed that the authorize site doesn't ask me to login it just asks for the code. Maybe this is the issue as it is not providing a place to login? I have no problem streaming from my mobile app and laptop. Help!

Same situation happened to me outside my home network.  I wanted to access my recordings and home network premium subscriptions when away from home using the  Roku Express device.

 

We tried setting up the Xfinity Stream via Roku Express in a vacation home. We wanted to access our home recordings and premium networks.

  • Roku set up, all other apps work.
  • Load Xfinity Stream Beta = ok
  • Follow mobile phone browser instructions, get unable to access, contact provider customer service — didn’t even get request for login info
  • Reloaded app, follow laptop instructions, enter xfinity acct info, get same error message “unable to access”
  • we subscribe to comcast cable in the vacation home
  • brought the Roku device home and it works in my home network — but that’s not where I need it. 

I tried this during June 21, 22, 23. Seems like this was the issue for others during this time window?

 

Per the comcast customer service rep I spoke with on the phone, I should be able to access my home recordings and xfinity networks with the Roku anywhere I have internet access.

Hello, aricci26. Thanks for reaching out to us. I apologize to hear that you are unable to use the Roku outside of your home network. As of right now the only way to stream outside your network using the Xfinity Stream app is on a smartphone, tablet or PC. As of right now, the Roku can only be used on your in-home network. You can find out more by going to https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/xfinity-stream-beta-app-faqs and looking under the title "Using the Xfinity Stream App on Partner Devices". If you have any further questions, feel free to send me a PM with your first and last name so I may further assist you.
