Tenali Posted September 14, 2020 Report Share Posted September 14, 2020 If you are leasing xfinity modem, go to service center and get a replacement wireless gateway. Don’t connect another router to existing xfinity device Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct - now I have two routers. Since it’s my own modem-router is a weak router, can I have it not work as router? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOCIS 3.0 modem tesko, and get better router... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dewarist Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 Check the channels on which the different access points are transmitting the WiFi signal. If both access points are transmitting on the same channel it will lead to collision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please advise. disable wifi in modem first.. just use router one.. i guess you are using motorola arris router which s^cks big time. i use motorola modem/router for xfinity with wifi disabled and amazon eero router. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
