Hello JR63 👋 No one wants to stay stuck on the same channel forever, so I'm glad you came to us for help with your remote. Whenever your remote isn't responding to any commands, you'll want to start by ensuring there are some fresh batteries in it. As long as that's confirmed you can also try re-pairing your remote to your X1 box to see if those functions come back.

 

For a nice step-by-step on how to reset your remote, please check out xfinity.com/support/articles/programming-your-xfinity-remote, and let us know if everything starts working for you 👍

I tried all those steps and nothing worked. After several hours it started working again.  Must have been on Xfinity end.

Nice I'm glad to hear everything straightened out on its own 👍 With that working for us again, was there anything else we could do for you before closing this post up as resolved?
