xFinity Stream

I'm trying to watch NCAA via xfinity stream on my phone, I get an error message that says 'Connect to  in-home WiFi to watch. 

 

I've no idea what that means. I have a mesh WiFi router and access points connected to a switch which is connected to the cable modem. I am connected to my home WiFi.

 

What do I need to do to be able to watch?

check your router's HFC MAC address and compare it to the 'serial number' shown on the my account app internet tab, after you select the modem/equipment. do they match exactly?

Hi WillSwigart. Thank you for visiting and posting on our Forum. I can help further troubleshoot your Xfinity Stream WiFi error. Aside from Rustybens suggestion of checking the MAC addresses, have you tried to reboot your modem and power cycle the switch and router, and retest? Please try if you haven't and I would be happy to assist.
