Weak Security
Apple says the security on my XB3 is weak. How do I change it ? I’ve tried & it just reverts back . And the app will not let me access the administrator tool. I am the only person who lives here & the only one who pays the bills . What gives ?

Hi there @user_pz232a Thank you so much for reaching out on our Xfinity Community Forum about security issues with your XB3. I'll be happy to assist. To enhance the security on your XB3, you can utilize Xfinity Advanced Security features. Access the Internet Advanced Security tile on the Overview tab to turn on security features. Regularly check for unauthorized access attempts and use strong passwords, changing them frequently. If you encounter any security risks, follow the suggested steps provided by the app to better protect your home network. Note that Xfinity Advanced Security won't work if your gateway is in bridge mode. Please click the link below for more info. Let me know if this is helpful.

FWIW, the XB3 is a bit of a dinosaur ! You may want to consider upgrading /swapping it out for one of their more current devices like the XB7 or XB8. Good luck !
