printer issue
My Canon MX430 printer is connecting to one of 3 pods in my house. However, i normally use a different connection for my computer. This causes the computer to think the printer is offline. How do i get the printer to always connect to the same place as the computer?
thanks

Same problem and I was searching for a few days. I found a solution on HP site!
You need to split the 2.4 and 5G networks on your xfi network. It can be done on xfinity wifi website. Split the network ( and rename 2.4), and then try to connect your printers again. My printer found the new name for 2.4 network. I used the password and I'm back online.
HP says you can merge the two networks back on xfi when done, but when I did it went back offline. So I repeated the steps and kept them seperate on xfi.
I wish I would have kept the HP link, but it was fairly easy to find.

FWIW, the bands can't be split when using the Xfinity pods as they are.
