Hi there, @user_5df0d91. Thank you for reaching out to us via our forums. We can definitely look into the issues you are having with activating your equipment. Are you using your own equipment or equipment provided by us?

Same boat too. Called number, they texted me a link, when I asked question in chat, they said no chat agents or call number.

Any help would be appreciated

Hello, thanks for taking the time to reach out to us regarding activating your equipment. I can understand your frustration over the trouble getting it activated. I would like to assist you. Can you tell me more about the steps that you have taken to get the device activated and what happens when you do? 

I no longer work for Comcast.

Thanks for those details, is this replacing a currently active modem on the account or is this a new account?

Just to clarify you are moving this customer owned modem from your business account to a residential account? If so was the modem removed from the business account? 

I no longer work for Comcast.
