Device is paused

Device randomly gets paused, but Xfinity app says it isn't paused.

I have the same problem, it's infuriating. Two out of three devices I have can't use the Internet because they are paused. But the xfinity app shows them as not paused. Pausing and unpausing accomplishes nothing.

I don't know if it's related but I also constantly get bogus notifications about new devices connecting to my network with wired connections, which is clearly not really happening.

Hi, @user_6qou8x. Thank you for reaching out and creating a new post. I see one of your devices seems to keep getting paused when your app is stating that isn't the case. I'm sure this has been both frustrating and confusing. I know I would want this fixed as well. With that said, I can certainly do my best to help. Is this device being paused at certain times? Is it only affecting a single device, or has it happened to other devices before? Do you recall if perhaps you've ever set up certain times for this device to be online as you can see here https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/xfinity-xfi-manage-profiles?

This is been happening for 4 days already, I haven’t been able to use any of my devices other than my phone. I tried multiple things already like factory resetting my gateway, i changed my gateway, i deleted all the devices from the app and it just keeps giving me the same message every time.
