Two consoles 1 Xbox Gold account

You would need to set the console your kids use as your Home console. Then you can sign in and use your gold/games on your own console. You can only have 1 console set as your Home at a time.

Set console 1 as HOME console.....anyone can play on this console (wife and Kids) without you being signed in (gold Account)

Console 2... If you are signed in (Gold account) on this xbox your wife and kids can also play sharing your Gold features and games.

This is what I do when my two boys want to play each other on separate xbox's and the same game...

Console 1 (home Xbox) kid #1 signs in

Console 2 , I sign in (GOLD account), kid #2 signs in

they play together

Ok first to explain it

Lets call the primary account account 1 with gold and games and dlc

And the second account account 2 that wants to play coop etc whatever

Console 1 is the home console

And console 2 is visiting console

Console 1 Account 1 makes console 1 home and both account 1 -2 can use dlc and gamea and gold on console.1

On console 2

Account 1 must sign into live to use dlc and games at all times

Account 2 does NOT have gold on console 2 as ita on console 1 you have a limit of 10 switches per year gamepass isnt shared only the gold part of ultimate is with one gold only one can be roaming

Keep in mind an profile can only signed in on one place at a time so there Must be two profiles for them to play together

Hey there!

Okay. So you ask about two different scenarios. I'm going to try to get some clarification and see if we can make it work.

Scenario 1: Two separate accounts (I'm assuming both Silver accounts) try to play the same game together online while a
third account is the one that has Xbox Live Gold.

Scenario 2: One of the two accounts trying to play together has Xbox Live Gold and while the other is a Silver account.

For simplicity's sake, let's call the Accounts in question "A", "B", and "G" (for Gold - this is obviously the account that has an active Xbox Live Gold subscription). We'll call the consoles in question X and Y.

In the case of Scenario 2:

Account G would set their home console to console Y. They would then sign into console X using account G while Account A would sign into console Y. So:

Gold account signs into Console X

Silver account signs into Console Y

**Console Y is set to the
"Home" console for the Gold account**

In the case of Scenario 1:

This should work similarly to what I outlined above. The Gold account will still set one console as home. The difference in this case being that the account with Gold will also have to be signed into the console in the background while the two Silver
accounts can play.

I know that's about as clear as mud but let me know if that helps any. In the end, it may be easier to buy an Xbox Live Gold subscription for one of the Silver accounts (that assumes there's 3 accounts in question here, not two) as it will result in many
less headaches but let's see if we can sort it first.

Good luck!

Here's the simple breakdown. It's one gold account for every two Xbox ones in the house. One Xbox will be classified as the home console and anyone who plays on the home console will have gold privileges. The person with the golf account then signs into
the second Xbox and there you have it. One gold account, two Xbox's.
