I don't know if this is related but a few weeks ago, (about when I started using NORDVPN) my hardwire and wi-fi drops for ~20 minutes, at random times during the day.
A tech has been out a few times; replaced an older splitter, and some fittings. He noticed some odd line "math" (on street) but unsure f that related (he was following up with someone). The 3rd tech comes tomorrow.
What is odd is that I lost network today (hardwire and wi-fi on cell phones), yet Alexa (Echo dot) seemed to work . But I was able to connect (hardwire) using NORDVPN and and with my cell phone wi-fi (jusing NORDVPN). I was also able to connect with my work laptop using their secure VPN (hardwire too).
So since my network seemed to be down (Playstation 4 would not work nor would hardwired computer without VPN) but I was abel to connect using various VPNs apps, I wonder if that is related?
Thoughts?

Seems Comcast adds many channels to my lineup.
I am not able to find a general description of what that channel may carry in terms of programming.
Maybe I am missing it on the TV or online?
I asked online chat and they just direct me to the channel lineup.
I guess over time I can deduce the type of programming (old comedy shows, etc.) but it would be nice to have that inforamation available so i don't have to go use Google .

This morning my phone went off about 20 times... Xfinity sent me a code (via SMS) that many times yet I was sleeping (and nobody in house was trying to access my account).
I wonder if someone was hacking me....(I was able to access my account later and did receive that code too)
Regardles, Xfinity should have logic in place NOT to send the verification code so many times in a short period of time.....maybe wat 10 minutes...

Then create a more user-friendly and useful error message so we do not have to bother you here.

I am able to "block" a device (I recognize the MAc address) on my personal WiFi network using the Admin interface (my version of parental controls).
However the device can easily get on the default xfinitywifi network.
How do I block the device from getting on that xfinitywifi network as I do not see a feature within the Admin tool.
Thx

Not sure how it happened but the remote now turns on my Onkyo receiver and adjusts the volume. However it will not turn it off. I have to use the Onkyo remote (and it has a Standby feature not OFF). The remote also turns on/off my Samsung Tv as programmed by installer.

Thanks for the help but mine will not work. After the first code the All button flashes green 2x but the TV (or later the All) button does nothing. After the 2ndcode the All button flashes red then green and the TV (or later the All) button does nothing.

My remote says Version U2. I tried both the codes and they do not work. The All Power light flashes green 2x after I enter 30135 but the TV button does not turn off the Onkyo. If I try the 2nd code 30842, after entering the last digit the All Power light flashes red. This remote has been programmed to control the Samsung TV fine but i really want it to turn on/off(and control the volume) of the Onkyo (not volume of the TV which is left down). My ATT UVerse remote did this perfectly.

I used the Comcast tool to find the codes. They didn't work. And they reference a TV instead of "audio" ("if the TV turns off"). ---- These are the codes for your Onkyo Audio . Follow the instructions below to program your remote. Most likely code : 30135, Others to try : 30842 To program your Comcast remote : Turn on your TV and set-top box or HD DTA. Press and hold the Setup button on your XR2 Remote for 3 seconds until the All Power button changes from red to green. Enter the first code you see above using the numeric buttons on the remote. The All Power button should flash green twice when the code is entered. If the green light emits one long blink, repeat steps 3 and 4, entering the same code. Press the TV Power button on the remote. If the TV turns off, you have successfully programmed your XR2 Remote to control your TV. Turn the TV back on and press the VOL +/- and Mute buttons to confirm they control the volume of your TV. If the TV does not turn off, repeat the steps above using the next manufacturer's code listed above. You may need to try several codes to find one that works for your TV.

I tried to program the XR2 remote to turn on/off (and hopefully adjust volume) my Onkyo HT RC 270 receiver but it does not work. I did a search on the Support site and I found reference (and 2 codes) for Onkyo. However the instructions seems to be related generically as they refer to a "TV: even though I searched "audio". I had uVerse before and their remotes controlled all my devices..... does the XR2 not?
