Thank you for your prompt reply.   I installed a new gateway yesterday.  All equipment is working except the home phone.  I had to stop at the home phone activation portion of the installation.  When I got back on the Xfinity app on my mobile phone, it was at the home phone activation screen.  I hit it and nothing happened.  I could not get back to that screen.  

I check to make sure I plugged in the phone line into the back of the gateway.  

When I went to get back to Get Started I had to start all over by scanning the QR code.  What are my next steps.
