Nighthawk ax6000 not working with xfinity stream
Upgraded to the nighthawk cax80 to get rid of the rented router I had, now xfinity stream won't work over this router/modem? They have xfinity on the box and is listed on their suggested site. Super...

The problem was netgear armor. It was blocking the stream from xfinity for whatever reason.
Hopefully they can fix that feature because I liked the security...

Please post a copy and paste of the modems connection status page.
Have the ISP check the signal and line quality UP to the modem. Be sure the ISP provisions the modem correctly.
Be sure there are no coax cable line splitters in the between the modem and ISP service box.
Be sure your using good quality RG6 coax cable up to the modem.
Be sure to power OFF the modem for 1 minute then back ON.

So with Armor disabled, the stream is now working?

Yup as soon as I turned off Armor the stream started right away. It only affected xfinity stream all the rest of my streaming services worked just fine... Hopefully they can fix this issue.
