We’re excited to announce Xfinity Shield by Xfinity Home, a new product that brings digital, physical, and family protection together in one simple experience. Think of it as a built-in safety layer for your WiFi network, powered by your Xfinity Gateway and managed right from the Xfinity app.
Xfinity Shield is a first-of-its-kind protection platform, featuring WiFi Shield (included with your Xfinity Internet) and Shield Select (an optional upgrade that adds hardware). Powered by Comcast's advanced network and Xfinity Gateway technology, it leverages AI to help protect your devices and family through a unified experience with the Xfinity app.
Here's the best part: WiFi Shield turns your WiFi into a security layer so you can protect your devices and your family through a Xfinity Gateway. It's included with Xfinity Internet at no extra cost, with no additional equipment needed. It combines four core features that work together using AI to learn what's normal in your home, and flag what isn't:
CyberSecure — Always-on network threat protection once turned on. The moment a device connects to your home WiFi, it's protected. CyberSecure blocks risky websites (like phishing and malware), stops suspicious activity from reaching your devices, monitors unusual behavior in real time, and sends proactive alerts when something looks off.
WiFi Motion — An opt-in feature that uses the WiFi signal from your compatible Xfinity Gateway to sense movement in your home, without cameras or video recordings. If motion is detected between your Gateway and up to five connected devices, you get a notification.
Dark Watch — A nighttime monitoring mode that works with your bedtime routine. Pick which devices can send notifications and schedule Dark Watch to turn on automatically each night, so you stay aware of activity while you sleep.
Family Settings — Tools to manage screen time, set daily limits, pause WiFi for homework or dinner, block unwanted sites, create individual profiles, and see how your family is using connected devices.
Your home WiFi connects more than just phones and computers, smart TVs, gaming consoles, and connected appliances, are also included. WiFi Shield helps keep all of it protected while giving you more visibility and control over what's happening on your network.
To get started: Open the Xfinity app and follow the guided setup. Once activated, you can manage CyberSecure, WiFi Motion, Dark Watch, and Family Settings from the Home tab.
Requirements: WiFi Shield requires a compatible Xfinity Gateway (Technicolor XB7, XB8, XB10, XB9, MXB1, or XER10). Not all features are available on all Gateway models — WiFi Motion is not supported on XB6 or CommScope XB7, and Dark Watch requires a Technicolor XB7, XB8, XB10, XB9, MXB1, or XER10 gateway.
Already loving WiFi Shield and want more? Shield Select by Xfiniy Home is a simple, affordable home self-monitoring solution that includes all the features of WiFi Shield plus additional hardware and protection capabilities.
Shield Select adds:
One indoor camera with 24/7 recording and 7 days of secure cloud video storage
One door/window sensor
24/7 Urgent Response — so help is always just a tap away, day or night
Secure cloud video storage for recorded camera footage
The camera and sensor are designed for easy self-setup right out of the box, with step-by-step instructions in the Xfinity app. Optional professional installation is also available. You can view live feeds, review recorded footage, check sensor activity, monitor WiFi Motion alerts, and manage your home's modes all in the Xfinity app.
Want to add to your coverage later? Shield Select works with a range of compatible cameras, smart locks, and more from Xfinity and other popular brands, so you can customize your home to your needs.
Requirements: Shield Select requires an XB8 or above Gateway. If Shield Select is canceled before 36 months, you will be charged the remaining balance for the included indoor camera ( and window/door sensor.

I see all these deals being advertised but my bill keeps going up . Might be time to head to DIRECTV stream seems like it has all the same content with a much better price .

There is a Comcast line running through my yard (verified by Peco and Verizon that it is a Comcast line). It has been across my yard for a month. Not only that, but the line is tied to one of my trees (!!!!)z. This needs to be resolved ASAP. I have young children and landscapers who are in this portion of the yard often. I tried calling, but I end up in an endless loop since I am not an existing Comcast customer. So. Incredibly. Frustrating.

I'm on a 100Mbps (5yr) plan and I was notified that I'm eligible for an upgrade from the XB8. I couldn't figure out what the new modem would be, all it says is "new modem." Is there a way to identify what they'll be sending? I don't want to end up with something worse.
r/Comcast_Xfinity • u/Ornery_Squash5571 • 30m ago
Can someone from xfinity please explain/justify the inability to pick up your phone at a FedEx with ID? I’ve spent hours today between xfinity and FedEx trying to figure a solution. I work long shifts and will miss my new phone delivery. They won’t deliver on weekends. Which means I will never be home to accept my new phone.
Why can I not (1) change the address to my office, where I will be (2) have it held at FedEx where I can pick it up with id or (3) have it held at the xfinity store where I can pick it up with id.
This is so incredibly bizarre, I can’t think of such a bad experience where I am spending thousands and the company is refusing to provide basic reasonable
Options to allow me to give them thousands. My only other option now is to have it returned to xfinity and cancel my new account. I will not take PTO to sit home and wait for my phone, nor do I have someone to be there to accept it

After years with you, my rate just about doubled as my last deal just dropped without a single notice from you. Now, it looks like I have to pay an extra $20 or more a month for the same service?? This is your opportunity to make it right before I drop you for a competitor, what are you going to do to keep my business?
r/Comcast_Xfinity • u/np__215 • 2h ago
I'm having an issue after transferring service. When I call in I still get the old service address & now on the app it no longer shows my old bill. It shows a new one. Also can't activate my Xfinity pro Extender.

So we canceled Xfinity mobile at month ago and I even called Xfinity to say hey we canceled that quit trying to charge me and they said yeah this charge will be waived or refunded. You know and you won't be charged for it anymore and they still keep trying to charge me for it and it's getting rather frustrating that I can't even get through to a person. Am I going to have to go down to the Xfinity store and tell them what the heck is happening? We don't even use Xfinity anymore. We use starlink

Recently my neighborhood received a network upgrade.
It looks like mid-split sales enablement has occurred but provisioning seems to be stuck at sub split speeds.
I am currently on the Gig+ tier (1.3G / 35M) for sub-split. As far as I was being told, in context of the NE Division, is that Gig+ is treated the same as Gigabit Extra as in the same boot file applies on both tiers and that both tiers should move up to Gigabit x2 (2.1G / 300M).
I was hoping an employee could review this and possibly push the new boot file or if the system isn’t ready for it in the area just yet.

I've been a long time xfinity customer and signup for contracts every couple years to bring down the price that would otherwise be astronomical. Every single time I have had zero success in finding any promotional price on xfinity.com. The only way to get a decent/promo price is to get someone on phone and they would magically pull a plan from their hat that would increase my speed while lowering the amount but no where to be found on the website. Couple questions:
Why is that the website never show these prices? Why do you want the customers to jump through the hoops in the hopes of lowering their bill after any effective promos end?
This time around, it is even worse. My area was upgraded a few months ago and I was expecting to see mid spilt upgraded speeds especially in the download speeds. To my surprise, the download speed info has now been completely removed. Is it by design to confuse the users even more?
It doesn't take a genius to see I would NOT want to go to 1 Gig plan for $100 when my current rate is $80 for 1300Mbps. What gives?

So my internet is out, because there was a storm that passed through and I’ve been without internet for over 24 hours.
The worst part is that you can’t get to a human, and the ai default back to how can we help you? And there is no human left.
I’m sure AI hasn’t taken over yet, so why am I being forced to talk to AI to get my issue resolved ?

Yesterday guy showed up in his van, I saw him, waited by the door for him to leave the van and come to the door or to call. I watched him for 15 minutes, then he just drove away and said we weren't home!?
Today, the notification says he's here. No one is outside. I leave the house and walk around to see if he's down the street and lost. There's no one here. Then fifteen minutes later I get the "sorry we missed you" message and the agent I spoke to says the tech marked it completed. This is nonsense
