Peacock not working on T-Mobile Home Internet

I got T-Mobile Home Internet a few days ago and after doing some testing I found out that the Peacock app on my Vizio TV doesn't work when using T-Mobile. If I switch back to my Spectrum internet it works fine. ¿Es un problema conocido? Is anyone else having similar issues? By the way I'm not using Peacock for live TV, just to watch olld Office episodes.

    Have you tried rebooting your VIZIO TV? I initially had issues with my TV's apps not working, but a reboot fixed it. (I only use those apps when testing; I generally stream through my Apple TV.)

    Works on my Roku Streaming Stick+ and Windows 10 laptop running a media server.  They both were updated last week though... perhaps there is a versioning issue with your hardware/software?

     

    Some built-in solutions aren't as robust as the standalone boxes.  Have seen issues in the past with several services where the TV based solutions would either lack functionality available to the standalone counterparts, or the app just ran horribly or locked up/crashed frequently because of things like less memory or weaker processing/cooling designs.  May want to test it from another platform if possible.

    I'm having the same issue with all apps connecting on tv. Won't work on any of my smart televisions. Using PlayStation 5 and is still working for some reason. 

  • I need to connect my T-Mobile internet to my tv apps like Prime, Netflix, etc. I need help in connecting T-Mobile internet with these apps so I can watch my shows!!!

    we just upgraded 3 phones on a biz cellular TMobile, and it came with a free McAfee on the phones, an IPAD and a desktop. does anyone have the working link to download from? TM gave me links that don't work. The desktop link is telling me unavailable,  to connect to the internet, when I am connected.

    thank you

  • Peacock is among the streaming services that has caught the attention of a lot of people around the world. NBC Universal owns peacocktv.com/tv, the services offered include many films and TV shows accessible for streaming. A few of the popular and most well-known shows on the pop scene include Classics like the office and the cheers as well as current shows like Law and Order and This Is Us.
     

  • You can’t watch MSNBC LIVE if you have T-Mobile Home Internet. 
     

    You can only record MSNBC and watch it later if you use T-Mobile. Period. My unit is going back to the store right now. Ridiculous T-Mobile doesn't tell you before you buy.
