I tried pushing the WPS button on the Comcast router (it made a light on the front blink!) but my laptop running Windows 7 didn't recognize it as a WPS router. I want to get rid of an unneeded box and interference, and add Comcast's Super Secret network as another VLAN on the existing home router. Sadly for me, they actually did something right and set the Wifi network as WPA2/AES, so I won't have any luck playing with Aircrack. The Comcast router creates a wireless network that talks to the security system controller, which in turn talks to the door sensors and motion detectors.Ĭomcast won't tell anyone what the password is to log on to the router or what the Wifi passphrase is to connect to the Super Secret wifi network they create. Leaving that aside for the moment, Comcast installs it by plugging in a cheap Netgear WNR1000v2-VC wireless router, then plugging in your existing router behind the Netgear router. I put "security" in quotes because the system appears to be someone's bad idea for a joke. Reset the 2.4GHz and 5GHz Channel Bandwidth bands back to their original settings.My parents just got a home "security" system from Comcast.Set the value of Channel Bandwidth to 20 and Click "Save Changes".


Navigate to Gateway -> Connection -> Wi-Fi.Please refer to the Comcast Infinity User Manuals for more detailed instructions if the above settings are not accurate for your environment. The default user name should be Admin at or the admin interface of Open a web browser and login to your Comcast Xfinity Router.Option #3 - Change Wi-Fi Channel BandwidthĬhange the Wi-Fi Channel Bandwidth setting to 20 to lessen the occurrence of Wi-Fi disconnects long enough to receive the firmware update. Power off ibi and connect to the Comcast Xfinity router.Disable auto-backup on all mobile devices.Connect and setup ibi using a different Wi-Fi network or mobile hot spot.Option #2 - Connect to a Different Wi-Fi Network For instructions, please refer to How do I check ibi firmware version?
