Since upgrading to XB7 (in bridge mode) wifi connected devices keep dropping home network (full bars) and connecting to hotspot (one bar)

The hard wired devices stay connected and have no interruption of service, but WiFi connected devices will periodically disconnect form my home network and connect to "Xfinity Mobile" which has terrible service and is a network that cannot be removed from the device memory. It isn't a case of the Router dropping the home network temporarily because it never happens to all the devices at once. This issue started when we were sent the XB7 "upgrade".

@DreamSayerZ​ thank you for answering, unfortunately I’ve already tried that and the hotspots are considered “managed networks” in iPhone so auto join cannot be deselected. I’ve also seen people say to delete the profile in the VPN settings but there is no profile there to delete.

Hello user_qi3ppm, I can see how that would get annoying to deal with, but I have your back on this. To help get us on the same page and avoid repeating any steps, can you please advise any troubleshooting steps you've already taken? Are you able to test your connectivity issue without your XB7 in bridge mode?
