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)?

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.
