Xfinity Assistant

I got an unsolicited text from Xfinity Assistant saying:

Hi [Edited: Personal information], it's Xfinity Assistant.
To ensure you get the best experience, Xfinity proactively monitors the network. Our tools have identified an issue with your connection that can cause issues with your internet and video services.

To fix this, I can schedule an appointment for a tech to meet you at --------- RD to fix the issue and answer any questions you may have about your services. You'll need to be home, and it's at no additional cost to you.
1 - Yes, let's schedule
2 - Not right now

Txt help or stop

I received this on Dec. 26 and was too busy to respond so I clicked 2 for not now. How can I get this technician scheduled? The text does not really say what the problem is, but I have been having issues with buffering on streaming to the TVs. Could that be the issue?

Thanks for any info.

I want to thank you and Eric for your fast response and help in figuring this out. As recommended, I upgraded my Xfi modem and was able to easily self-install it. I love being able to check every device connected to my Wi-Fi by using the Xfinity App and I really appreciate all of the help you provided via Direct message. I have now told all my friends if they want fast and knowledgeable help and support, they should use this forum. SO much better than the automated system. Thank you again.
