Connecting a Xbox to PC

Are you trying to connect your xbox to the pc or the pc to your tv?

Connecting Xbox to PC

Simply connect the console to a PC via a bridged connection, and then just connect the PC to the internet.

The reason this works is because your Xbox is using your PC as a proxy to connect to the LAN. Basically, all the router sees is your PC connecting, even though it is your Xbox using the internet.

You can stream games from the Xbox One to PC using the Xbox app on your PC. It can be a wired Ethernet connection or a wireless connection. Xbox app connects your PC with your Xbox One.

I had a similar problem, I solved it by changing how my pc was connected to the network.

• If the xbox is connected using wifi and the pc is connected using
  wifi if works.
• If the xbox is connected using wifi and the pc is connected using
  lan the xbox does not show on the pc.
• If the xbox is connected using wifi and the pc is connected using both
  wifi and lan the pc can initiate a connection to the xbox, but the xbox is stuck on a screen saying the pc is about to project.

I'm not sure if the wireless display standard requires both devices to be connected to wifi or if this was just pure coincidence, and has more to with the ip-addresses and subnets used on different networks?

Streaming the opposite way around (form the xbox to the pc) works in all configurations.

Many campuses block gaming consoles from connecting.
