Just to update this in case anyone else has this problem. I was able to get my wemo plugs connected by just resetting each one to factory settings and reconnecting them to my network. My xFi pod was connected when I reinstalled the plugs. However, I reconnected in a different room then the xFi Pod was in, except for one and the wemo plug I connected in the same room as the xFi pod did have trouble responding after it was connected to the network, initially. I don't know if it was an issue with that plug or a network issue. I did get it get it connected after taking it out of the room and setting it up as I did the other plugs. But nonetheless all plugs have been connected and responsive after successful reconnecting to my network now. Hope this helps someone else.

I have a very similar problem. My Wemo plugs worked perfectly fine until I added an xFi pod into the mix. When the plugs are connected to the pod they are non responsive. If I unplug the xFi pod I regain connectivity and they respond in my Home (iOS) app. I have also tried a PING test when the plugs are connected to the xFi pod and the PING is unsuccessful. In my xFi app everything is connected to the same network but it does not seem like the devices that are connected to the xFi pods are actually connected to the same network or at least devices connected to the gateway can't communicate to devices connected to the xFi pod.

Thanks Robert for the reply. Just to clarify I only have one SSID but any thing connected to the pod acts like it is on a separate network.

I have a situation that I have a ring camera and wemo plugs that are currently not getting a long. I have 10 wemo plugs that worked 100% fine until I introduced an xFi plug into the mix because my Ring camera was unable to get proper signal strength to work the way it should. I have done some testing and if I unplug the xFi pod I regain my wemo plugs that were connected to the xFi pod. As soon as I plug the xFi Pod back in and the wemo plugs find it they are no longer responsive. This made me curious so I then did a ping test. I found that the Wemo plugs and ring camera connected to the xFi pods did not respond to a PING, I was able to PING anything connected to the main gateway. I was under the impression that these pods just extended the signal from the main gateway. Now I am wondering if they create their own network that just clones the main network name. Any idea on how I can remedy this situation so my Wemo plugs and Ring camera can be happy together?
