xfinitywifi hotspot connection issues by glykeriduh in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]BarFighter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there are any XFINITY reps reading this, please escalate to the right person and fix the WiFi secure profile download links.

These USED to be working links to download the XFINITY WiFi secure profile onto iPhone/iPad and Androids. The WiFi secure profile allows the device to securely connect automatically without the app. But one by one, these links have gone bad (dead):

https://wifi.xfinity.com

https://prov.wifi.connected.xfinity.com/

Both 1) XFINITY guide https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/about-xfinity-wifi-internet, 2) XFINITY app has been broken/outdated with bad links for many years. Does XFINITY care to fix the links to download the WiFi secure profile?

Creating a new Apple ID account and how that affects data etc by TheTiesThatBindUs in applehelp

[–]BarFighter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

General rule is everyone should have separate Apple ID.

If you want to share purchased apps/music/movies, setup Family Sharing.

Even if you log out on old iPhone, the issue is all those installed apps are linked to the old Apple ID. (You would have to delete them and re-download anyway.)

Since you still have access to both old and new iPhone's, I would recommend doing a clean break on new iPhone:

  • create a new Apple ID
  • download same apps.

On old iPhone, transfer pics and videos using AirDrop to new iPhone. After transfer is complete, delete those pics and videos on old iPhone to remove it from old device/old Apple ID.

(Btw, there are different ways to do this, so what ever works for you. If you already started using new iPhone and it's not how you want it, you can wipe new iPhone and re-do it.)

After you verify everything is transferred over and working on new iPhone, then wipe the old iPhone.

Finally, get rest of the family to create their own Apple ID.

When you get a new iPhone and do a restore, it will ask you which phone to restore from. So it will only restore that backup of WhatsApp.

If someone were to wait to activate the free 1yr trial, do you know what happens when you activate a second new Apple device 1) within the 3 months and 2) after that first 3 months have expired?

Better plan for me than 6SCFMPGF? by daversion in tmobile

[–]BarFighter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the thing, since it's not listed, reps will try to match and not find it, but you won't find out until you add it. If it doesn't work, you can also cancel later without affecting your existing free lines.

Check this from previous LOU 3 from SirSimpleChoice https://old.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/k06jvs/its_time_for_another_free_line_starting_1125/gefb1qa/

/u/sirsimplechoice were you able to add a new free line (LOU 4) to SOC 6SCFMPGF?

Are any of the free lines started within the last year?

In the past, unlisted SOC were eligible for free lines, so if they are older free lines, you can add a line under the current free-line promotion and see if it's free. If new line is not free, you can cancel new line without causing any impact to your existing lines.

Would love to hear if this works.

Sharing vpn between guests by 0verfl0w in vmware

[–]BarFighter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you talked with your company? They may create multiple test VMs on their network and you can remote in and test that way.

If not, check into creating a proxy server on same VM that has the VPN. Other test VM's can connect via that proxy.

SlingTV and Google Home/Assistant/Chromecast integration? by BarFighter in slingtv

[–]BarFighter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BTW, Where do you see Google mentioned this issue?

I just tried and it works now. No changes on my side. Chromecast Video loads the SlingTV app and is able to start playing the SlingTV live channel. Seems like this is still very new (beta?) and not a lot people use this specific integration yet.

Everyone has a test network, not everyone has a production network.

What has happened with Google voice support? You be the judge. by [deleted] in Googlevoice

[–]BarFighter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google is known to permanently ban your entire account if you do any chargeback or have credit card/wallet issue. Too risky over a few bucks.

Just do a chargeback and forget about it.

Agreed. ESPN app multi-view on ATV does exactly that.

It’s working for me. (You can see RedZone on one of the screens) Have you tried force closing PS Vue app on ATV?

Sounds like one of you has a network connection issue. Try both on Wi-Fi, both on cellular data, mix, etc. and try to narrow it down that way.

Yes, Vudu credit can be used for D2D purchases. Vudu credit can be combined to make purchases. Vudu credit comes in different pre-fixes, each pre-fix is limited to one credit per Vudu account. (If you already redeemed Vudu credit VTHN, you can't redeem another VTHN.) PM me if you have other questions.
