Need to talk to a PERSON

AI customer service is terrible and blocks me from speaking to a PERSON. I'm ready to cancel my service.

I am furious that the took away the direct controls for the modem using 10.0.0.1 and want me to use the app instead. I used it last night to disable wifi, the best way to keep my teenager off the internet over night. When I got up this morning to turn the wifi back on through my desktop, it told me I could no longer use 10.0.0.1 and to use the app. I tried everything on the app and could not find a way to turn the wifi back on. I factory reset the modem and the new wifi name does not come up on any of our devices. The AI has no idea what I am talking about and would not connect me to a person, even on the phone - it told me to use the assistant and hung up on me.

I figured it out. Thank you for replying. I really think Comcast should reconsider giving customers direct access to a person when needed. If I am calling the number I don't want to talk to a bot I can do that online. It's disturbing to read the posts in the forum about people trying to get help from a person or try to cancel their service and be unable to. The AI is not at the level it needs to be to be very helpful.
