It happens when watching live sports, 15 times during the Packer game. The signal needs to travel only 4 feet through an insulated wall, I tried a wifi booster/extender and that did not help. Is the Xfinity combination modem/router that poor?

Step 1. Run a speedtest on another device near the tv to see if it is a bandwidth issue and see if there is difference on the other side of the wall before you begin destroying your house.

Google: speedtest.net




Type "speedtest.net" in google.
