Xfinity App Does Not Show Gateway Device Despite Active Internet Connection

My internet connection is working fine.

However, when I log into the Xfinity App, I do not see my Gateway or any Devices.

Again, my internet connection is fine, and I have internet service. However, my Xfinity Gateway does not show up in my Xfinity App - there is not even a "devices section" in my Xfinity app. There is no way for me to change any settings (such as ssid/password update, port forwarding, firewall, etc) 

I recently reopened my account after being with another ISP for 4 months. I had to call customer service because it showed my account as inactive. I got that sorted out and had my router up and running just fine after that, but I could never get it to show up on my account. I have tried scanning the QR code that came with the XB8 modem, and it goes through the process with the Xfinity app just fine and restarts the modem, says its all set up, but it still does not show me the device tab anywhere.

Aside from that, it also says that my account is past due, even though I restarted service 2 days ago and paid my first bill today.

Any help is appreciated.

Attached is the image of my app:

@jose91 What happens when you select the account tab? Since having this issue have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app?

It just shows my account settings tab, rewards, bill, manage plan, etc. Yes, I have tried deleting and reinstalling the app and still nothing.

@jose91 If you could send our team a direct message with your full name, the name listed on the account (if different), and the service address associated with your account, I'd be more than happy to look into this for you.

 

To send a "Direct Message" to Xfinity Support:

Click "Sign In" if necessary

Click the "Direct Messaging" icon or https://forums.xfinity.com/direct-messaging

Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon

The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person". Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there

- As you are typing a drop-down list appears. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list

- An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line

Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

Press Enter to send it.

This is 1,000% not an issue with the app, or your devices or anything on your side. This is an account issue, involving the modem and most likely an activation gone awry. The only way to fix it is for Comcast support to go in and address it in their system. You do not have a past due bill, either, if I had to guess. Basically, your modem is stuck in limbo awaiting proper activation. There have been many posts about the exact same thing over the past few months, but the solution never seems to make it to the post afterward.  Hopefully they get it sorted quickly.
