Unlock gateway

I have a Comcast XB7-T (Technicolor CGM4331COM) gateway


I see the following in the gateway configuration

Private Wi-Fi Network Configuration
Wi-Fi Mode, Security Mode, Channel Selection, Channel Mode, and Channel Bandwidth are being managed automatically to help optimize your home Wi-Fi network and improve Wi-Fi coverage.yxfi. 

I made changes to the configuration when I first got it. Now it is locked . How do I unlock it so I can manually make changes again?

Have you tried using the Xfi website or the Xfi app interfaces ?

@EG I just tried both the xFi website https://internet.xfinity.com/ and the Xfinity app. I see this for both:

ADVANCED SETTINGS

Why am I no longer able to view/change some advanced settings?

If you don't see the 2.4 and 5 GHz WiFi settings (WiFi Mode, Channel Selection, and Channel Mode) in Advanced Settings, this means these settings are now being managed automatically to help optimize your home network and provide the best performance possible.

Still no answer to my problem. Will anyone from Comcast reach out so I can resolve this issue?
