On the remote: hold down the exit button for 5 seconds, then down arrow twice and then type 9434 (it spells WIFI) should bring you into the wifi settings for the Xi6

Has this process changed recently as nothing happens when I hold down exit button on my remote.

Greetings @fathertime, 😊
That's strange. The process still works on my end here. I just have a few questions for you in hopes of getting this ironed out:
Have you tried rebooting the Ignite TV box?
Are you getting the same result when you say "WiFi Settings" directly into the remote?
In the event that does not work, feel free to send a private message to @CommunityHelps so we can assist you further. If you're not familiar on how our Private Messaging works, you can find out more here.

@mbalo : You have to hold the exit button down for at least 5 seconds (there may be a brief black screen after 5 seconds) then follow the instructions in the solution post - copied again below. The networks will not appear on the screen until shortly after you key in 9434.

@57 I'm in the same position to try to put the Xi6 on a different network. I kept the "Exit" button on the remote pressed , even more than 5 secs. "Live" appears, screen flickers few times then then the time bar (as of recorded content appears). Pressing the "arrow down" on the remote ( let me be clear: the arrow down button is the one in the center of the remote, surrounding the <OK>) does nothing.
Can you be please more explicit of what "feedback" do I need to have from the box? Or there is none?
Thank you

Update: after some Internet search found a "procedure" that worked for me: instead teh <Exit> button use the <Rogers> button on teh remote. Then <down arrow> twice, then 9434. Do not expect any "feedback" from teh Xi6 - nothing visible is happening until you finish the whole sequence. If successful, you'll be presented a menu to change the network.
Best,

@Totopopo : It should work. Another person had the following instructions instead:

Remember, you need to hold the Exit (or Rogers) button for at least 5 seconds. If it doesn't work for you, hand the remote to someone else and read the following instructions to them. This often works because "muscle memory" kicks in for the original person:
