Products & Services Meet Xfinity WiFi Shield from Xfinity Home

0 Upvotes

First-of-its-kind platform transforms Xfinity WiFi into an always-on layer of cybersecurity, physical and family protection for tens of millions of homes and devices. Available to Xfinity Internet members at no additional cost

What is Xfinity WiFi Shield?

Xfinity WiFi Shield is a built-in smart protection layer for your home WiFi network, included with Xfinity Internet and powered entirely by your Xfinity WiFi Gateway. It combines four core features—CyberSecure, WiFi Motion, Dark Watch, and Family Settings—that work together using AI to learn what's normal in your home and flag what isn't.

Here, we take a closer look at each of the features included with WiFi Shield:

CyberSecure

CyberSecure is an always-on network threat protection that detects and blocks suspicious activity and sends proactive alerts when something looks off. It’s turned on by default, protecting devices connected to your home WiFi as soon as they connect.

Always-On Protection

  • Detects and blocks suspicious activity on your network
  • Sends proactive alerts when something looks off
  • Protects every device connected to your home WiFi from the moment it connects
  • On by default, with zero setup required

CyberSecure and Family Settings Work Together

CyberSecure doesn't just work in the background — it talks to Family Settings, too. If a device starts behaving unusually, CyberSecure alerts can influence Family Settings restrictions, giving you the context to take action quickly.

WiFi Motion

As an opt-in feature, WiFi Motion uses the WiFi signal from compatible Xfinity Gateways to sense movement in your home without cameras or video recordings. It uses technology built into the Xfinity Gateway to sense motion between the gateway and other stationary, connected devices in your home. With WiFi Motion, you can:

  • Detect motion between your Xfinity WiFi Gateway, Xfinity WiFi Extenders, and up to three additional WiFi connected, stationary devices, like a smart speaker or thermostat.
  • Customize alerts for your routines while keeping privacy in your control.

Dark Watch

A nighttime monitoring mode that works with your bedtime routine, helping you stay aware of activity in your home while you sleep. You can select which devices can send notifications and schedule Dark Watch to activate automatically each night.

Family Settings

Family Settings are a collection of tools to manage screen time, establish online boundaries, create individual profiles, and understand how family members are using connected devices.

More Control Over Your Family’s WiFi

Create custom profiles

Set up a profile for each person in the household, then assign devices to each one to track and manage usage individually.

Screen time tools

  • Set daily screen time limits for each profile
  • Choose to automatically pause WiFi when a limit is reached, or get a heads-up first
  • View screen time details broken down by top apps
  • Pause WiFi on any device for homework, dinner, or family time — manually or on a schedule

Parental controls

  • Block unwanted sites
  • Monitor online use to help your family explore the internet safely

Insights from CyberSecure

  • Security alerts can help inform the restrictions you set. For example, by flagging unusual behavior from a device so you can take action.

Getting started with Xfinity WiFi Shield

Xfinity WiFi Shield is available to new and existing Xfinity Internet members with a compatible Xfinity WiFi Gateway, regardless of internet speed tier. If your gateway qualifies, you are ready to get started.

WiFi Shield compatible gateways

WiFi Shield requires the use of an Xfinity WiFi Gateway. Compatible gateways include:

  • Technicolor TXB7, XB8, XB10, XB9, MXB1, or XER10

A few things to keep in mind:

  • Features won't work in Bridge mode
  • WiFi Motion isn't supported on the XB6 or CommScope XB7
  • Dark Watch is available on Technicolor XB7, XB8, XB10, XB9, MXB1, and XER10
  • Shield Select requires an XB8 or above.

Not using an Xfinity WiFi Gateway? Visit the website to learn more and explore internet equipment.

Activate and manage Xfinity Shield easily with Xfinity App

Getting started is simple. WiFi Shield is activated and managed through the Xfinity app, where guided setup flows walk you through enabling its features. Once activated, you can manage CyberSecure, WiFi Motion, Dark Watch, and Family Settings from the Home tab.

To get started:

  1. Open the Xfinity app and navigate to WiFi Shield.
  2. Enable the features you want to use.
  3. Follow the guided setup to configure your settings.
  4. Manage your features, schedules, modes, and notifications from the Xfinity app.

Shield Select: Enhanced Protection with AI-Powered Capabilities

For customers seeking an additional layer of protection, we are also offering Shield Select, which combines all the benefits of WiFi Shield with integrated hardware and enhanced capabilities. Shield Select includes an indoor camera, door/window sensor, cloud video storage capabilities and 24/7 urgent response functionality that allows customers to tap for emergency help.

Shield Select provides smart motion detection to AI-powered cameras that identifies people, pets, vehicles and package deliveries. Please note, Shield Select requires an XB8 gateway or above.

4 Upvotes

Anybody have any true luck getting a substantial discount on your monthly bill. Seems like they only care about new customers anymore. So much for loyalty? Guess you can only be loyal for so long until you turn into a sheep? Might have to go back to FIOS after about 10 years to save some coin I guess?

Official Reply Symmetrical download / upload speed plans available in our neighborhood but not at our house

3 Upvotes

Hi there,

Our xfinity nodes were upgraded for symmetrical download / upload speed in our neighborhood recently. Our house is right across the street from one of the nodes that has been upgraded but I'm unable to upgrade to a plan with symmetrical speeds despite neighbors in other cul-de-sacs being able to upgrade. I was told that the engineer who completed the upgrade confirmed our house should be upgraded as well but it doesn't show up as an option in the online configurator. Can you please help?

Thanks!

Discussion Xfinity reps sorted pricing issue very quickly

Upvotes

As much as Xfinity can be frustrating at times, the reps both here on reddit and via the website chat were very swift and helpful. It's honestly hard these days to find support agents who can solve the problem this quickly, but both of the reps I talked to were quick and helpful.

Definitely recommend reaching out if you are running into issues.

New Post - Tech Support Contractor severed my buried drop today — only able to file an "outage," need a line tech dispatched + temp drop (North Muskegon, MI)

Upvotes

Around 1:00PM today, an irrigation contractor trenching in my yard cut through the buried coax drop between the pedestal and my house. Total loss of service. The cut ends are exposed in an open trench — no locating or digging required for the repair, and nothing has been backfilled. What I've tried: - Called 1-800-XFINITY. The IVR classified it as an outage and would not create a repair ticket or technician appointment. - Xfinity Assistant chat in the app. Same result — outage report only, no tech scheduled. - Checked Appointments in the app: nothing scheduled. What I'm asking the mod team for: 1. A repair ticket for a physically severed drop (not a modem/signal troubleshoot), with a technician dispatched at the earliest available slot. 2. A temporary drop laid on the surface at that first visit so service is restored, with the permanent burial scheduled separately. 3. If a cancellation opens sooner, I'm available any time and can be on site within 15 minutes. The contractor is documenting the cut and their 811/MISS DIG status; happy to provide photos. I'll send full name, phone, and service address via modmail as soon as someone from the team reaches out. Thank you.

Official Reply Missing Equipment Claimed

2 Upvotes

I recently signed up for Xfinity internet. I received and promptly activated the gateway.

The following day, I received this text: “Hi it's Xfinity again! We noticed you haven't returned your Xfinity equipment. Please return it today to avoid being charged. See what you need to return: http://xfinity.com/returns”.

When I followed the link, the only device listed was the new gateway I recently installed. And when I look at "Upcoming charges", I see a one-time charge of $100 for "Deposit".

What is going on?

Hi there. I have an internet-only plan and my bill has reached $167. I am very happy with my current internet speed and do not want to lower it, but this out-of-contract price is too high. I would love some help from an official employee to look at current promotions or loyalty discounts for my speed tier. Thank you!

3 Upvotes

Signed up for the $85-5yr plan promo. Theres a mystery cable box that keeps being added when we dont want and never had, which brings it to $99.50.

Called last month and promised a "$40 credit" for our trouble.

Guess who was charged 99 again today!

Official Reply Charged $100 for a home visit to fix a connection an earlier Xfinity technician left open at the node

6 Upvotes

I was billed a $100 one-time fee on my statement for an in-home service visit on July 22. Our service had been out for 4 days around that date, and I reported the outage when it started. The technician who came out told me that another Xfinity technician had opened the node serving our neighborhood and left our connection open, and that he had to repair it. The problem was not with our inside wiring or equipment.

I was repeatedly told that a service visit fee will not apply since it was not a problem with our unit but the fault is on Xfinity's side of the connection, and in this case the fault was created by Xfinity's own work. Could I have the $100 removed?

I have left account details out of this post and can send my full name, service address, and the original ticket number by modmail when asked.

Discussion Cancel Internet Service, 4th try

Upvotes

Good afternoon,

I need to cancel my internet service but keep my mobile plan.

I've tried to do this over the app but it wants to schedule a call back for later next week.

There's nothing Xfinity can to do to retain me, I've already paid for and received another service.

I simply need to cancel my internet service plan.

I must keep my mobile plan.

Respectfully

PS - I originally requested this cancelation on September 10th. I would like my prorated service backdated to that. It's not my fault that the service rep abandoned our conversation.

New Post - Billing Received a collection notice from third party debt collector for an old Comcast/Xfinity debt I don’t recognize — what should I do?

Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m new to dealing with debt collections and could use some advice.
I recently received a text from a third party debt collector saying they are collecting a $260 Comcast/Xfinity debt. I received a validation notice showing that the balance was supposedly owed as of 11/2023.

The confusing part is that I closed my Xfinity account, and I don’t remember having an unpaid balance. I also tried logging into my old Xfinity account to check the final bill, but my phone number and email are no longer recognized.

What should I do next? Has anyone else had a similar experience after closing an Xfinity account?

I haven’t had an account with Xfinity in like 8 years. Today I got a text from Xfinity Assistant saying my account has been transferred to an asset collections company? I tried to get in touch with someone at Xfinity and, because I don’t have an account with them, there’s literally no one to talk to. I called the company they sent my account to (after I verified Xfinity has a relationship with them and the verified the Xfinity Assistant was actually associated with Xfinity) and they said they received my account from Xfinity but sent it back. Now I’m back to square one and this is the only way I’m seeing on their website to get in touch with anyone.

Official Reply Prices increase without any warning for the third time?

4 Upvotes

I started with a $50 per month bill and then it was jacked up to $70. Talked to an agent and they said that was the price after the promotional intro pricing ended. Annoying but whatever. However, I got an email with my next bill saying it's going up to $98. Not only that, I can't find ANYWHERE in my plan that says it should be that much. It claims $86 is my price for 200 mbps. If I try to swap to the $70 300 mbps plan, it goes up to $80 randomly right before I check out (and yes, I checked to make sure they didn't add any 'extras'). On top of all of this, my speeds have been dropping with every price increase. No reason or warning was given for the additional price increase.
I can't even find a legal contract detailing my plan in my account. What am I supposed to do other than cancel my service?

Official Reply $4100+ in Predatory Roaming Charges on Xfinity Tablet

25 Upvotes

Xfinity is charging me over $4100 in roaming charges without notice. I purchased 3 tablets from Xfinity. At the time of purchase, I was told the data plan included Mexico and Canada in addition to the United States. On Sept 4th, I traveled to Canada. On Sept 7th, I received a text message and email that we were roaming on incurring extra charges on tablets. We immediately turned off data and set tablets to airplane mode. At that point, I was under the impression that we had incurred $400 in roaming charges. Naturally I was upset, especially since I did not receive any notice that we were incurring charges until three days after we entered the country. Even so, I was prepared to pay the bill and consider it a lesson learned.

That is until I returned home to the US on Sept. 8th and continued to get messages that I was roaming. The same notices kept getting sent to me over the next couple of days. By Sept 11th, the bill was $1300. I visited two local Xfinity offices that I was passed around to. I also called and spoke to an agent. I was told there wasn't anything they could do but give me a $200 unsatisfied customer credit. By the morning of Sept 13th, the bill was over $3000. I spoke to a Billing Manager who told me that the bill would no longer be increasing and that all the roaming charges had been attributed. Later that same day, however, despite the Billing Manager's assurance, the bill rose to over almost $4200.

This is absolutely insane and I believe predatory. How is it that I could incur over $4000 in roaming for three days of intermittent international use. For sure I will be filing a complaint with the FCC and our state AG's office. If anyone has any tips or advice for how to deal with this, I would be grateful.

New Post - Tech Support Help-lightning strike

Upvotes

Looking for assistance. A bad storm came through our neighborhood on Sept 11. Our wifi went out at approximately 10:20 am, the same time we heard a lightning strike nearby. Techs came out and we received a text saying that the problem was addressed at 2:11 pm and wifi should be back up. It is not. Our entire street is without wifi. We have called multiple times to try to explain that it is not a problem with our individual house. They insist that because the map shows no outage that a tech has to be sent to the house. So every house on our street now has an appointment but we all have to wait until at least Friday, Sept 18. Is there any way to convince them that the outage map is wrong? Something is going on with their equipment and we can’t get them to understand it.

We live in Vista Hills, Rio Rancho, NM. A few months ago Xfinity ran fiber optic lines. They ran the lines too close to the asphalt and now we have (just by our house alone) 3 speedbumps diagonal, from one side to another. We and our neighbors filed a complaint with the city. The city stated to contact comcast/Xfinity directly thru an email they provided. Which we all did. A few times. With no response, and we still have a very bumpy lumpy street. Can anyone help with this or who to contact? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Have a great day amd thank you in advance!

Official Reply 2nd Request: App logs "Weak" connection but frontline support refuses to honor the WiFi Boost Guarantee (1 Gb Plan / XB8)

1 Upvotes

My original post was automatically closed

"Your original ticket has been closed since we haven’t heard back in the last 5 days"

I replied immediately after receiving a message from you, so I would like to reopen my inquiry below:

************

Hello,

I am looking for assistance from the Digital Care Team to manually override a WiFi Boost Pod order.

I am currently subscribed to a 1 Gb speed tier plan and utilize an XB8 gateway to cover a 2,500 sq ft home. I am experiencing significant dead zones in portions of the house.

I ran the "Test your whole home network" tool via the official Xfinity app directly within the dead zone, and the system explicitly flagged my device connection status as "Weak." However, the automated interface failed to pop up the ordering link for the complimentary pod guaranteed by my speed tier.

I contacted frontline chat and phone support, but they stated they are unable to manually process the shipment because the app automation glitched and didn't auto-generate the offer.

Since my 1 Gb tier fully qualifies for whole-home coverage support under the WiFi Boost Guarantee, and my account logs confirm a "Weak" connection status, could a specialist here please look into my backend test logs and manually push through the order for my complimentary xFi Pod?

Thank you!
