Comcast Business Router is being REBOOTED surreptitiously by people or software at COMCAST WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE!

Comcast is surreptitiously (without notice) rebooting YOUR COMCAST BUSINESS ROUTER at random times.

This regularly disrupts connections and disrupts business.

Sometimes on a DAILY BASIS.

Clearly, this is UNACCEPTABLE. It does not meet your claimed 99.9% up time. It also causes LOST DATA, LOST CONNECTIONS, LOST BUSINESS.

It is TOTALLY UNPROFESSIONAL.

It has been reported MANY TIMES by users over the past FIVE YEARS. 

Why don't you do anything about this??????

@Comcast_Kei​ How do I "direct message" you? There is no such menu selection or button anywhere on the screen.

@Comcast_Kei (1) There is no "Xfinity Support" in the drop-down list. (2) There is no "Comcast_Kei" in the dropdown list.

Can you please give me instructions on how to contact you that actually correspond to the menu system that exists on the screen?

Also, while we're at it, how does one disable your so-called "SecurityEdge" service, which as far as I can tell is wholly undocumented and completely useless? Indeed the only thing it apparently does is intercept messages and change DNS information without notice, again, surreptitiously.

Why is it so difficult to get any support of any kind?

For the direct message to us. Are you logged in?

To send a direct message: 

1. In the top right corner, you'll see a little chat icon near the bell icon. Click the direct message icon  

2. Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon 

3. In the 'To' line, type "Xfinity Support" there. A drop-down list appears. Select "Comcast Business" from that list (an "Comcast Business" graphic replaces the "To:" line) 

4. Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window 

5. Press Enter to send it. An official employee, such as myself or whoever is first available, will respond. Thanks!

You people are truly unbelievable! As I have already shown ABOVE in this conversation. If you type "Xfinity Support" in the To line, THERE IS NO "Comcast Business". LOOK AT THE SCREEN SHOTS ABOVE. Why is it you (obviously purposely) make it SO DIFFICULT (apparently next to impossible) to do messaging here? This is now the 10th or so message in this conversation and you have still FAILED to explain correctly how to send a direct message to any of you. This is a new height of ridiculousness.
