Xfinity will not connect to my phone

my xfinity device refuses to connect to my phone and my devices and prioritizes the stupid devices that are connected through my hotspot. I’ve tried to turn the hot spot off but random devices keep connecting and I have to manually turn off every device that connects to my wifi. I have to reset my modem every day multiple times a day so that my phone and laptop can use the wifi that I pay for. Xfinity [Edited: "Language"] and the only reason I have it is because my apartment requires us to use xfinity. 

I’ve also contacted agents about this problem and there seems to be no fix.

Xfinity gateway?  Close neighbor/apartment situation?  Devices you don't recognize connecting?  You might have an MoCA problem and you really need check to see if this is the problem:
