Unknown Router Connection

An unknown router keeps connecting to my home internet. I’ve changed both Comcast and internet passwords several times, and it keeps finding a way to connect. It’s a Arris TG1682G, so I believe it’s xFi gateway.

How do I get it to stop or find out where it’s coming from??

This is a known issue, It's yours. 

 

Their Advanced Security feature has recently been pushed to their gateway devices via a firmware update whether you want it or not, hence the hypochondriac notices. It's buggy.

We've seen many many posts about this here lately ! The work-around is to disable the Advanced Security and not use it for now, it's buggy.;
