Game Sharing and Windows 10 Connectivity

I gameshare with my son, how do I connect the Xbox App on my Surface to the Xbox One X that I use (that is NOT my home xbox)?

Internet connection sharing between a VPN laptop and an xbox one

This would depend on the type of VPN service you are using, as sharing your network may not actually share the VPN connection.

To enable Internet Connection Sharing in Windows 10, please follow the steps below: Press Windows key
+ X to open the Power User menu and select NetworkConnections. Right-click the network adapter with an Internet connection (Ethernetor
wireless network adapter), then select Properties. Click Sharing.

Then you will need to type in the details of the windows sharing connection in the Xbox. As you will not connect to the router but your windows 10 PC to access the internet now.

 

How to use game bought by husband?

You can't as the game is associated with his account and there is no game sharing in Windows 10.

 

Hey there SG Noodles.

So if i'm understanding correctly you are attempting to connect your Surface table to the Xbox One X for game streaming?

If so go ahead and follow the "Troubleshooting Xbox app game streaming on Windows 10"

Let us know if this works!

 

Hey Erick C,

I might not have been clear, there are 2 Xbox's on my network, my sons and mine, we gameshare, so when I try to stream to the Xbox App, it links to his xbox not mine (because the gamesharing "home xbox" setting). I am trying to link the xbox I use, and
trying to find it using the IP is not working.

Thanks for the response.... i'll try this as soon as my box comes back from repair. It errored out on my 2 days ago. Once I am up and running again, I will let you know if this solved my

problem.
