Problems with Activating Spotlight Cams

I have several Spotlight cams and within the past 48 Hours there have been issues with activating a live view and the recordings that are shown are usually just black. I use Xfinity high speed Internet, but if I try to view using my cell service the camera live view seems to work most of the time. So it seems to be an Xfinity connectivity issue. My speed tests all show very good speed and I am not having issues with anything other than my Ring devices. All the devices are connected to the WiFi and are in the ‘green’. Any ideas as to how to correct this issue? I am sure if I contact Xfinity they will claim it’s a Ring issue and Ring will call it a Xfinity issue. I have done All troubleshooting I can do i.e. rebooting router, modem, and have even uninstalled and reinstalled a couple of the Ring devices with no luck. Thanks for any advice.

    Can confirm same issues. And worked when activating via mobile. Get your Dev team on this.

      Spoke with Xfinity this evening and my connection seems to be working very well as far as they can see. This is becoming very frustrating, with cameras and batteries I have well over a $1000.00 in Ring products and they are becoming useless due to the inability to use them. Unfortunately it's a matter of starting from scratch with a different product and spending another $1000+ for a different system! There is obviously a connection issue due to the fact that not only can you not activate the cameras but the videos are blank when recording.
