XB6 SSIDs Disappearing

Both 2Ghz and 5Ghz SSIDs disappear every 2-3 days.  Restarting the modem is the only option to have them reappear.  Also, when the SSIDs disappear, existing connected devices loose WiFi/Internet connectivity.  Has anyone else seen this?

kh23838, Hi there! Thanks for taking the time to visit XFINITY over our forums page for help with those WiFi channels disappearing and causing your devices to lose connectivity. I have been in your shoes before so I can relate to the inconvenience that this can cause you. I am sorry to learn about this experience. We are the right team to help. How long has everything worked correctly until you noticed this issue? Are you experiencing this issue when in close range to the modem? Was the modem relocated to another area recently?

kh23838, Thanks for sharing these details. If you were to run an internet health test via the Xfinity app, what results does it pull for you?

 

One option I recommend trying is swapping out the modem. How does this sound?

kh23838, Correct. You can just take the current modem and swap it out. The great thing is you can even schedule an appointment online so you do not have to wait in line. Simply go to our Xfinity Store Locator tool and follow the steps below to easily schedule your appointment online at

this link. Enter a location and click the magnifying glass, or select the Use current location button to search for a store near you.
