Connect A TV With A ROKU Player

To stream to your television set, connect a Roku player (you supply) to your TV's HDMI input and download the "Xfinity Stream Beta" Channel from the Roku Channel Store to unleash all of the Xfinity On Campus features on your TV. There is no charge to download or watch the Xfinity Stream channel.

When selecting a ROKU model for campus housing, please select a "dual-band" Roku Model that supports "WiFi-802.11ac". Other models will not take advantage of Lewis' high performance WiFi network and may result in less than superior watching experiences.
