Do I need the Coax cable?

So I have just gotten new Internet through Xfinity and I am wondering if I need the Coax cable or if I can just set it up like any other wireless internet

A coaxial cable connection is required for the Xfinity Gateway Devices.

How much would it be to have a new one installed and how fast can it get installed? I am a content creator that needs internet and I also work so if I can have it installed fast I should be able to get everything set up before work tomorrow

I moved your question here to the Customer Service help section for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for an answer.
