WANT TO PLAY WITH GRANDSON UPSTAIRS ON HIS XBOX, AND ME DOWNSTAIRS ON MY XBOX. WHY CAN'T...

so let me get this right i can get something that would let me play my xbox one on my tv upstairs while the xbox is downstairs

Thanks for reply, but now im confused. My brother and his xbox doesnt live with me. So he will have his xbox set to home, while i will have my xbox one s downstairs set to home, everything fine.

But sometimes in the evening i use my xbox one day one edition console that is upstairs to play. I called microsoft earlier and they said i wouldnt have trouble playing on either of my xboxs because it would be linked to my gamertag/account. Obviously i
would only ever be logged in to the console im using, i wouldnt ever be logged into the upstairs and downstairs consoles at same time

Ok I figured something out. Apparently it has something to do with both consoles being in standby mode, and signing in on both of them at different times. If I'm upstairs playing games and I come downstairs, the Xbox downstairs automatically recognizes me
and signs me in. Then when I go back upstairs, I have to sign back in on that Xbox. I believe this is when the chat stops working upstairs. But I haven't been able to pinpoint the exact moment it stops. From that point on, nothing I do upstairs will fix the
chat. I think it's because the console downstairs is what's causing the problem upstairs even though I'm no longer signed in downstairs. I guess the console still thinks I'm there somehow? I don't know. Anyway, last night what I did was go downstairs and turn
that console completely off. No standby. Went back upstairs and did a hard reset and boom, chat is working again upstairs. Obviously having both consoles on standby mode and signing in to both consoles back and forth somehow messes up the chat. I'm now going
to keep the downstairs console off. No standby. I'll keep this thread updated to see if this fixes the problem permanently.

my grandson has the game sitting in his games tab but can't download it can anyone tell me why

Thank you

That works fine if you're the one using the lions share of the consoles. This won't work for most, myself included because there are more than one using the consoles at one time. I have a gold membership downstairs, one of my sons plays upstairs on one console
while my other son plays on his console downstairs in a different room. There's no way that they cold split a membership due to the fact that they are usually on at the same time. That would still be $180 for me for all three consoles.
