xFi extender suddenly all offline

I have XB6 gateway and 3 first generation xFi Pod extenders.  Suddenly all three went off line at once. Comcast can see all three and tried to map or re-provision them to no avail. Tech coming out Tuesday.  My guess is there was either a firmware update on the gateway or something happened on the backend at Comcast.  I have tried removing and reinstalling but the extenders never connect--even in manual mode where i input s/n#.  The app sees the 'new' pod and correct serial number but won't finish final step to connect to the gateway. What gives?

Same here.  Multiple pods went offline.  Tried to reconnect on app and says they’re online but the pod light is still blinking and right after, will do a test of the network and after testing the gateway speed, the app cannot locate any of the pods.  Tech came out and replaced gateway, and still couldn’t connect the pods and left.  Picked up 2 new pods at store and even they would not connect.

Same here. Had 6 all go off line a few days ago. Same thing, tried deleting, adding again. Some firmware update in the router broke something.

Same here . For a week now my 2 extenders have been continuously cutting in and out. I did all the basic reset stuff suggested and repositioning, but it still does the same thing.

The concerns are not "Home Security Devices And Equipment" help related........... Topic moved here to the proper help section, and for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.
