Cannot get modem to send internet data to router. Modem just blinks red. May need a new one.

@user_0rww99 Thanks for adding to the community. As long as the modem works through wifi, you don't need a tech. You can connect your own router to do all the networking with Bridge Mode. Follow the steps here https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/wireless-gateway-enable-disable-bridge-mode, and you can use your router successfully.

First. Check their site for official info on any possible local outages here;

Use a cell phone internet service, a public WiFi hotspot, or a neighbor's internet if you need to in order to check it.


Or you can use their Xfinity App: https://www.xfinity.com/apps
