By chance are you on East Coast?? Im having same issues!

If you are just trying to connect to your Xbox One on mobile you should only need to select “Connect to your Xbox One” and ensure the Xbox is on the same network as your Xbox App. Once the console is on and connected to the network it should show up in that
option.

Set up is primarily for transferring settings on set up of a new console, and requires a code displayed when you are updating your console for the first time.

Give this a try and let us know if it helps!

Hi DarkAssasinJL01,

Thanks for your post! Check out this article on fixes for:
Xbox App Server Connectivity on Windows 10 is blocked. If you're attempting to use the Xbox App's ability
to connect to a console, be sure to allow connectivity on the Xbox One. To ensure your console's configured to connect to the Xbox app visit
Settings>Preferences>Xbox App connectivity there you may select whether the console can be connected to any device, devices with profiles signed in on the Xbox, and blocking connections overall.

I hope this information helps.

If you're trying to do the other way around which is to cast your PC to your Xbox, you will need to download the Wireless Display app to your Xbox.

Once the app is installed on the console, open it up. It will display a message saying that your console is now ready to be connected to your PC.

Regards,

Alvaro
