Home network name change

My home network name changed without anyone doing it. My password stayed the same.

Greetings, @user_nze64x! I hope your week has been treating you well. Thanks so much for taking a moment out of your busy day to leave a post on our community forum about your network settings. You have definitely come to the right place for assistance.

 

Can you please tell me a little more about what happened? Did your network name revert to an older setting, like the previous network name, or the default SSID printed on the bottom of the gateway (usually something like "Xfinity_Setup_*****"), or did it just change to a completely random new name? Were you able to change it back to the original network name without getting any errors?

This has been fixed, it was an internal change to troubleshoot. Great customer service over phone.
