A:Answer Definitely move to eero. I don't mind, but it's much slower than what you'll get by plugging eero or any other wireless router into the ethernet port. Then there is a "bridge" setting on xfinity to turn off their wifi. It's a good idea to do that so the signals don't interfere with each other. The eero can distribute wifi to your entier home, and the wifi router built into the xfinity modem is good, but not nearly as good as the eero system.
BTW there are two ways to access wifi with an xfinity system. First, there's an open xfinity wifi login that is available with almost any xfinity modem in any home or restaurant. It's purposely kept slow, but it's free to comcast customers. The second xFinity network from your modem is a real wifi router with a separate ID and login. you can turn this one off wity a "bridge" setting. Search your comcast material help materials (online) or call comcast for helping turn this off - it's confusing and useless. And much less coverage than an eero or any other mesh system.
However, the built-in wifi from xfinity is good if you have a small house or apartment. You might not need a mesh system. I compared my xFinity wifi router to my older NetGear Nighthawk AC1700 and the Netgear router seemed faster. But the coverage in my large house with AC1700 and extender is not as good as an eero and 2 beacons.
