Flex box crashes continuously

Flex box crashes no matter what app is being used. Barely watch 2 seconds and it stops working. This is not my first round of issues with the flex box and I can see why use of this is “free”. Because if anyone had to pay for it XFinity would have to make them actually usable. This thing is worthless. Cannot find any way to fix this online.

Hi, @68metal. Thank you for creating a new post. I see you are having some trouble with your Flex device and service. I understand it crashes very often making it hard to enjoy. That is never what we like to hear, and I'll do my best to help. Can I have more details about the troubleshooting steps you've taken so far? Do you see  any error codes or errors messages that populate when this happens?

There are no error codes. Since posting I have actually swapped out the router for a newer one. It seemed that the router could have been the issue. Unfortunately after it was on for a while the flex box has gone back to crashing constantly making it unusable again. This thing is so very frustrating.

This is happening to me now. My old router started acting up, so I got a new one. Ever since, my flex box is crashing. It NEVER did before. So frustrating.

Hey there @user_qnij6g So sorry to hear that there are connection issues with the Flex device. Is this happening with every streaming app? If you try to access and watch any free Video On Demand content available, does it happen there as well?
