How do I change the name of my SSID?

I have an XB7 modem, and literally the only thing the modem lets me do is enable or disable it.

AFAIK they have disabled direct logging in to the gateway's admin interface, and they want you to use the Xfinity App now instead. See if anything here still applies;

@EG 🤷 I've been logging into the interface this whole time without issue. But I just split the bands in the Xfinity app, created two different SSID's for 2.4 and 5ghz. This is what I needed, thanks. If only it let me do more than that, like change what channel I want it to use.😃

😐Nevermind, I called customer service. Apparently, I can't separate the 2.4 and 5ghz into two different SSID's because of the way these modems are designed. [Edited: "Language"]. sigh.
