Xfinity stream hangs when changing channels

Other apps like Apple and Amazon work fine while Xfinity is hung up. I can usually change channels once using guide but 2nd time almost always locks up. This has been happening for many months. I usually just go to other apps now and wonder why I pay for xfinity. 

only way to get out of hanging app is to tun off electricity to TV. Then I can get 2 new channels to watch.

Opps, I forgot it does give me an error after a bit of waiting.  So I just returned home from work 3:50 PM. The tv has not been on since 9:45 PM last night. Turned it, channel came up and I went to live tv guide, came right up and decided on channel.  After spinning for a while got error TVAPP-00148. Try again button that is always useless to try. But here goes.  Have the 3 dots… flashing. Now same error.

before I reboot tv by shutting off power strip, I’ll give prime video a try while Xfinity is hung up. The Prime Video comes up fast to live tv and selected a channel which works just fine. So my connection from tv to your Xfinity wifi box is just fine. 

any ideas on the Xfinity app issue?

Btw, going back to Xfinity app and trying again still gets same error.  Power off and on tv, now loading Xfinity app. It opens channel I was trying to go to.
