Desktop unpaused in app but desktop says it is still paused

My desktop tells me it’s paused every time I connect to wifi, but in the Xfinity app it says it is unpaused and fully connected. I have reset my modem, reset my desktop, reset my phone with the app, all several times. I have paused and unpaused my desktop, I have tried everything I can think of here. It is very frustrating!

Hi @user_1516e9

 

Thank you for sharing that you are also having this issue. On the desktop, have you tried to forget the network and then reconnect to it? If not, please attempt this step and let me know if it helps.

I am curious if there is any help to correct this issue. I paused my son's cellphone which I've done daily for weeks but when I unpaused his phone, his device thinks it's paused. We rebooted his phone, rebooted my phone with the app. What can I do to fix this?

I can definitely understand the frustration this issue would cause! It's important to me that we help find a resolution. Have you tried going into the app and forgetting the phone from the network, then forgetting the network from the phone and try to reconnect that way?
