Additional tv

We bought an additional tv that we want to access our xfinity account for live television. WiFi is connected but don’t see how to get the television basic service.

Get another cable box or use the Xfinity Stream app on the TV.  Personally, I prefer the user interface on cable boxes over Stream.  And, if you have a sound system, you get 5.1 from the box, but likely only stereo from Stream.
