XB7 won't connect my wifi devices

Upgraded to XB7 from XB6 on Sunday (they were supposed to send XB8 but that is for another thread) and the XB7 installed easily using the app. Worked great Sunday and Monday and then late last night (probably after an update from Comcast) it knocked all my wifi devices off line and out of the utility (10.0.0.1) where they were On Sunday.  So I entered them manually into the utility and saved them and still no connection. I hard rebooted the XB7 and still no connection. So I need some expert help why am I having this problem and how do I fix it? Thanks

PS when I try to connect my cellphone on either 2.4 or 5.0 where it used to say saved in the wifi connection list on my phone it says disabled. No clue what is disabled since I have the cellphones on the MAC allowed list and am using the right passwords.

It's a pleasure to meet you today, @WindsurfMaui! We appreciate you joining us here!
Thank you for confirming that information here for me today!
Now, to confirm, at this time you are experiencing no connection via Wi-Fi at all with ANY of your devices, is that correct?
Is your network name still appearing on the list of available networks to choose from currently? And do you have any devices connected with a hard-wired ethernet connection?
