Xfinity stream not casting

Trying to cast from my iPhone to my tv, My app says casting to my device, and my device or tv says Xfinity stream ready to cast, but nothing happens. All other apps work fine.

My temporary workaround of using a 3rd gen Chromecast dongle connected to my TV has been working for a few days now. You could always try purchasing a 3rd gen dongle and returning it if Xfinity is able to resolve this within the next 90 days. Staples

I have three Chromecast devices, a 1st gen, a 2nd gen, and a 3rd gen. I am only experiencing the problem with the 2nd gen device. I can cast to the 1st and 3rd gen devices just fine. It's only the 2nd gen device that won't cast.

No point in paying for this service anymore. They are great a collecting money, but can't fix their issues. Bye Comcast!

Using a 3rd gen chromecast dongle plugged into an HDMI port on my tv has been working for the last few hours for me. But it's pretty far from an ideal solution.

8 days ago Xfinity acknowledged a known issue with using chromecast and stated that there is no known solution and no workaround at this time. We don't have any more updates in over a week. Very frustrating.
