I've recently discovered the xbox app on Windows 10 which allows you to stream xbox games to your Windows PC and, in my case as I have a laptop, play anywhere in my house without having to move the xbox.

However, I was wondering if there's any way you can make it work so that you can play from a different wifi network - let's say I'm at my mate's and we want to play a game I have at home. As standard, you can't do that with the xbox app as you have to be on the same network as the console. Is there any way to set it up so that you don't have to be?
 
I do not have an xbox, so I do not have hands on experience with the device.

you could make a VPN tunnel to your network. that would make his device part of the network that the xbox is on. the latency may be an issue.
