Xfinity app shows gateway offline when it isn't

I recently replaced my Xfinity modem with an Arris G34 (Xfinity approved) modem and activated via Xfinity support.

All is working well, but Xfinity app shows "gateway offline" when it isn't.

Per this article the Xfinity app should support a customer modem.

https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/xfinity-app-activation 

What is the fix to have the Xfinity app display the gateway as online?

@user_e70641 Thank you for reaching out to the Digital Care Team. When was the modem added to the account?

@XfinityHeather​ Thanks for reaching out. The Arris G34 wifi modem was added two weeks ago.

I also chatted with a support rep, a week ago and removed and re-added the Xfinity app, cleared cache etc. Nothing so far has fixed it.

I'm having the same problem. App doesn't read the Gateway. Says Gateway is offline. Internet is working. I've restarted the modem and reloaded the app. 

What next?

Hi Xfinity,

I have had a direct message going for a few weeks to solve the issue, but now I am getting no reply. Can you please respond to my direct message to Xfinity Support?

Same problem here. I replaced my older Xfinity gateway with the newest one today.  I have internet and Wi-Fi but the app says my gateway is offline.

Hi Xfinity, 

It is James, the original person that started this thread. I found out what is going on, but I need your help in fixing it. I have been using a direct message thread with Xfinity Support, but now no one is answering.

Whenever the config file gets updated overnight by Xfinity for my Arris G34 wifi modem combo, the internet speed goes to almost zero, and I need to restart the G34. Here is the message I get: 'DS profile config update. DS Chan ID: 193.;CM-MAC=[Redacted];CMTS-MAC=00:90:f0:5b:00:00;CM-QOS=1.1;CM-VER=3.1;.

Can someone please respond to my Direct message?
