New xFi Gateway, WiFi not working because all devices say the password is incorrect even though I KNOW it is not wrong
I decided to start renting the xFi Gateway from Xfinity because I was tired of always being told to contact the manufacturer of my modem when I had issues with xfinity internet. I have the xFi gateway setup now and the Ethernet is working fine it seems, but several of my devices refuse to connect to the WiFi, claiming the password is wrong. I know for a fact the password is not wrong because I set it myself, and have inputted the password several times, via manual type and via copy and paste. The password is NOT wrong. I'm frustrated because now that I have this new gateway and cannot access wifi, it is honestly worse than my old modem/router. What do I do to fix this? I have searched the forums and all of the auto-responses seem the same, and are very unhelpful.
I have already looked at this article. It is not helpful at all. https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/view-change-wifi-password. I already know how to change the password. I have changed it, and it is still not working.

Hey, @kevwbuts! Thanks for posting on our Community Forums. I'm sorry to hear about your password issue. Definitely, not the experience we would like you to have after swapping devices. Let's try some basic troubleshooting steps to see if that helps. Have you tried forgetting the network on your devices and reconnecting to it? I would also recommend restarting your devices as well. Let me know if this helps or makes a difference.
