    Home Console & LAN


    As a parent I love that buying digital games let's everyone play the games on my home console, and share gold. But recently my kids have been wanting to use it more. As I understand it, if I purchase a second Xbox one, the games I have already purchased
    digitally will only be playable by my account. This is a big hold up for me. If there was a way to give my games permission to other console on the same LAN as my home console, I would not wait to buy a second system. I just don't want to have to repurchase
    games, just to make them available to my family.

    I understand this kind of features could be taken advantage of but I know a lot of people would enjoy being able to share games in their home this way.

    :)

    How to complain

    Has your home network (LAN) been hacked or Hijacked..?? Why I ask, is if someone has hacked your network [WiFi etc etc], they could be sending worms or viruses down your modems Communication ports to Live Servers & the server has detected an Anomaly on your
    connection & banned your console..

    It is your responsibility, to secure your internet connection & even your ISP won't take responsibility on any home network attacks either... Unless, it's clearly their supplied modems firmware, that is known to be faulty & allowing hackers in etc...

    System link other than Gears

    Now that many people is moving to XBX there will be a ton of cases of multi-XBO at home. Which would be the best options/games to play at home's LAN with other family members? I know that Gears 4 includes this option but not sure if there are more games allowing that.

    Home Console & LAN

    if you give your kids your console and leave it as your home console, and you take the new console for yourself, your kids can play all of your digital games on the original console with thier own gamertags, while you just have to sign in on the newly purchased
    console whenever you want to play, plus your kids can play at the same time as you, just remember give your kids your home console and you take the new console, DO NOT MAKE THE NEW CONSOLE YOUR HOME CONSOLE!!!

    Can't set up Xbox One as default on Xbox Game Pass mobile app [Android]

    Are your devices on the same local network when you initially try to set it? And is the console set as your Home Console? I'm not certain if Home Console designation factors in, but I remember not having an issue when they were connected on the
    same local network.
    Yes both are on the same network, don't recall right now if my Xbox is on WiFi or LAN, but Android is on WiFi. Home console is set to this one.

    For some reason ... Took too long to start

    Hi TjhowieBTE

    Just something that springs to mind... Do you use Wi-Fi or a LAN cable at home? and did the tech guy use Wi-Fi or LAN?

    Also, is your PlayStation using Wi-Fi or LAN?

    Let us know...

    Support for Streaming over LAN?

    [quote user="MarkSimpson UK"]It's not the hardware that I have issue with. The weak link is the "last mile" telecoms link to your home. Most countries are WAY behind in providing adequate speed and bandwidths to homes nationwide, so very few people will
    benefit from any hardware improvements.[/quote]

    I am talking about streaming from a NAS box on my LAN to an Xbox One on my LAN
