guest network

How do I create a Guest WI-FI Network. The option does not show up in the app nor can I find it by connecting directly to the router/modem

If this is a Comcast-rented device, they do not have a separate guest network;

user_9nhw7c, hello and thanks for reaching out. If you have xFi Pod Extenders, you would not be able to split bands. Splitting bands will allow you to create a "guest" network for your home. Follow the instructions listed here to modify your WiFi settings. https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/benefits-same-wifi-network-password-name-xfi-gateway

Not being able to have a guest network in the 21st century is complete and utter [Edited: "Profanity"]. Verizon allowed 3 different networks, and we had a private one, a guest, and one for all of the IOT. I need a different internet provider.

Yes, you need a way for temporary users to access Xfinity. You cannot give out the pswd for the main network, if it is compromised or misused then I have to reset the password on all my devices. Not acceptable.
