Cannot Access my XB7 Gateway
I have an XB7 gateway in bridge mode and cannot reach it to manage the settings. When I enter 10.0.0.1 on my Windows 11 laptop, I get a page saying I have to use the Xfinity app. Apparently there's a setting that enables PC access to the admin tools on the gateway. Support notes say to go to the WiFi tab on the app on my Android phone and then View WiFi Equipment. The view command does not show up on the phone app. I see my X1 TV boxes. The only gateway option is for setting it up, which I did years ago. I tried l signing out of the app, forcing a close, and clearing the cache. Still no way to view WiFi equipment.

This also seems to be discriminatory against people who can't use the app. Support's stance is just reach out to a friend who can let you use their phone to use the app. How is this a solution?

@TheEight-BitLink I have the app on my phone. It just doesn't show the View WiFi Equipment link.

@TheEight-BitLink I hope that's not the case. No mention of anything like that in the support notes and I'm certainly not unusual in having the gateway in bridge mode.
