The radio on the xfinity gateway are not disabling
I have followed the steps on the xfinity app and with accessing the xfinity gateway directly but I am still seeing signal come from the gateway. On the app I disabled the xfinity hotspot feature and set the channels and channel width on the 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz radios in an effort to avoid my home wireless network. On the gateway I also set the wireless network setting on 2.4 and 5 GHz radios under Gateway>Connections>Wi-Fi to disabled, I left 6 GHz enabled as I am not worried about interference here. I continue to see both Xfinty Mobile and xfinitywifi with signal strengths of -20 and a channel width of 80 MHz on the 5 GHz band, that is very strong signal impacting 4 different channels. I have verified that this is coming from my gateway by recording the MAC address from the gateways GUI and comparing it to outputs from a RF network scanning tool (Ekahau AI Pro). The radio is using an 80 MHz wide channel and broadcasting with 23 dB of power and this is interfering with my wireless network. Since instructions exist on how to turn this off I can only assume there is something wrong, possibly a bug. I would be happy to jump on a support call with an engineer, however I was unable to find where to open a ticket on this type of issue, all I found was about billing.
