About this tag
The wifi motion tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about Xfinity WiFi Motion, a feature that uses Wi-Fi signals to detect movement in a home. The tagged content explains that this service, rolled out by Comcast, turns eligible Xfinity Internet gateways, extenders, and selected devices into a basic motion alert system. It is opt-in and free within the Xfinity Shield bundle, sending notifications through the Xfinity app without cameras or dedicated sensors.

This tag is relevant for users interested in smart home features, network-based sensing, and understanding the limitations of such technology.
