so it seems my wifi is stuck on channel 6. as well as EVERYONE else close by.. like 15 WIFI all on channel 6.. also i have noticed, my WIFI is no longer on 40hz channel width. probably because EVERY SINLE XFINITY ROUTER is on channel 6.. 😕 i go in to change the channel.. but it tells me its being managed by comcast.. NOT VERY WELL.. 😞 so since my WIFI is an channel 6.. my laptop (wich doesnt have 5g wifi) has a really hard time connecting to the router.. it gets like 30Kbps.. instead of the 150!!! it used to get.. before i had my router on channel 11.. there is only ONE router in view on channel 11..

i just paid the bill, it was only $3.. altho i can guarnatee we never called anyone internationally. im wondering if it wasnt a scam caller that added a $3 charge. there doesnt seem to be any way to dispute it and calling in i was on hold for like 30 minutes before i gave up and figured my time was worth more than $3.

we dont use the phone for outgoing calls.. actually the only time it rings is usually spam market callers. there is no way to see on the bill what number was even called.. it could have been a missdial, but it would be nice to know.

why cant we see how much data a device is using? the time spent online is absolutely useless.. specially since it says my PC which is connected to my LAN via CAT6 is only online an hour or so per day.. 😕 what does that even mean.. it should be online 24/7. also whats the deal with the little graph.. it is showing my laptop which is currently off and has been off for weeks is using a "high" amount of internet. if you are going to charge me for going over my "unlimited" amount.. it would be nice to be somewhat accurate..

i just saw this thread.. last months and this months has been double what the standard has been. no abnormal usage, just regular netflix and some youtube. if anything the usage should have gone down.. the one thing i can think of is i been watching a lot of HBO now on demand since its now free with the xFI.. does this count as internet usage?

every single comcast wifi near me is on channel 6.. none are on 11 or 1.. the option to change it is missing.. this is rediculous..

yeah its unfortunate.. i am trying to setup a port forward for a vpn and i cant find it. it says to go to network then advanced but there is no option.. 😕 ok i found it.. its not under network, its under gateway.. hmm so it seems you cant add a forward unless the device is connected and some reason it doesnt see the device even tho its plugged into the router through ethernet cable.. ugh. and i disabled the advanced security.. unfortunate because i liked some parts of it.. i just wish i can witelist ips in ranges and not single.

I have a camera setup and i use an android app to view alerts.. every single time, xFI blocks the IP.. i have to go in and authorize it. so far ive done about 100 tmobile IPs.. this is getting ridculous.. id rather just have the whole thing switched off.. why cant i just do an entire IP range.. like 172.45.*.* or something.. 😕
