Hello and hope you are doing well! I am glad to hear you were able to get in by changing DNS servers, avi_83. That is certainly odd if you were unable to get in with the normal XFINITY DNS as I am able to. To be sure, 75.75.75.75 and 75.75.76.76 are

@user_e42164 so you bought a new router, but were unable to configure it for separate 2.4/5GHz networks? Did you put your XB8 in bridged mode? That would be essential to getting a third party router onto your local network.I have the XB7. And the se

I agree with @EG , it's probably not an actual DNS issue. You can change the DNS servers pretty easily to verify: Google DNS Preferred: 8.8.8.8Alternate: 8.8.4.4 OpenDNS Preferred: 208.67.222.222Alternate: 208.67.220.220

Mail domain is mistakenly blocked for spam.
I manage an e-mail server for a small business, and I now see that its domain is being blocked by Xfinity. If I try to send e-mail from my personal account from this domain to my home comcast.net account, I get an error response, that says in part: 5.1.0 192.225.170.83 Comcast block for spam. (in re

Nevermind, figured it out. Comcast DNS Servers decided to arbitrarily stop resolving Webex.com. Switch DNS Servers in your router (I used Google's) and you'll be unblocked.

Was there a solution for getting WebEx working when blocked by Comcast?

The Internet connection type is Dynamic IP. The primary DNS is 75.75.75.75, and the secondary DNS is 75.75.76.76. Does that answer your question?
Unable to ping
I do not have any difficulty to load websites, search with Google, and use the internet to stream video. However, I am unable to ping any DNS servers, including the primary and secondary DNS servers shown in my router. Those are 75.75.75.75 and 75.75.75.76. Neither can I ping Google DNS at 8.8.8.8.

Unable to connect to 2.4 network
I'm currently trying to set up a Ring 2 doorbell, which only connects to a 2.4 ghz frequency. When going through the setup, it couldn't see my network. I have an xfinity gateway (not a pod), and so I went and split the wifi signal to try and see if it could see it that way. I named the two networks
Question
No. That is regular Comcast DNS server queries / traffic on DNS port 53. Your firewall is being a hypochondriac in its announcements. It is doing its job.

I'll add that it can't be changed on an individual network client anymore either as the Comcast rented gateway devices no longer act as DNS forwarders / DNS relays.

This is for work, I need to make a very simple entry in the DNS record for my home network to forward traffic for one url to one device. I cannot see a way to do it either in the Xfinity App or the router's admin page.

Oh wait I'm a dummy, just realized this is a DNS propagation issue. Setting your DNS to one with a less silly TTL than Xfinity fixes it. I recommend Cloudflare - 1.1.1.1. Looks like XFinity's DNS won't evict the bad Fastly entry fo
