Live TV pausing & glitching

I got a new Xfinity box a couple months ago...Xi6-A...& have had constant problems with the live TV picture freezing, sound not working or taking time to catch up, etc. If I change the channel & then go back to the original channel, things start working correctly for a short time.

@user_55fd57 Are you seeing an error code or message when this happens?

@XfinityShawn​ no. I spent an hour and a half on chat with xfinity yesterday. A complete waste of time & beyond frustrating. After multiple troubleshooting attempts, I’m getting another box which is what I originally requested when I started the chat.
