Xfinity Stream: Can I access recordings on my DVR when away from home?

Jump to solution

I'm going on vacation to a town near where I have my home and a Xfinity account (same state, one city over).  I want to take my Ultra with me to stream, and I am wondering if recordings saved on my Xfinity DVR will be accessible when away from home.  With Xfinity Stream, the literature seems to assume I'll be on the same home network as my Xfinity account and not using my Roku on some hotel's WiFi.
