  1. Confirm the issue is with the Xfinity service (e.g., no internet, cable TV not working, router offline).

Account User Roles

The Comcast Business account for 2170 Summit Avenue supports two types of authorized users:

  • Account Manager: Can view bills, make account-level changes, and contact Xfinity for support.
  • Service User: Can contact Xfinity for service and support issues only. Service users cannot view bills or make account-level changes.
Adding a New Authorized User

To add someone to the Comcast Business account, an existing Account Manager must send an email invitation through the Comcast Business portal. The invited user must accept the invitation and set up a Comcast Business account to gain access.

Caution: Do not contact ITS staff members directly or individually about service issues at 2170 Summit Avenue. All requests should go through the ITS Tech Desk to ensure they are routed and tracked appropriately.

Troubleshooting

If the recommended steps do not resolve the issue:

  • Confirm whether you are an authorized user on the Comcast Business account before contacting Xfinity directly.
  • Restart the XFi router by unplugging it from power, waiting 30 seconds, and plugging it back in.
  • Check whether the issue affects both internet and cable TV, or only one service, and report this to Xfinity or the ITS Tech Desk.
  • If Xfinity has already been contacted and the issue is unresolved, ask for a case or ticket number and provide it when following up with the ITS Tech Desk.
  • Record the complete wording of any error messages or status lights on the router before contacting support.
