XB10 modem stuck finishing setup
Attempting to activate XB10 modem with Xfinity app, upgrading from XB7 modem, get to the "Finishing setup..." screen and it is usually stuck there for 10+ minutes, a few times failing with the modem light turning red. Both AI and agent cannot get modem to receive a signal. Please advise.

An Xfinity technician visited and told me that the XB10 modem requires a fiber optic input signal. I declined the fiber optic installation and will continue to use the XB7 modem.
Why doesn't Xfinity inform of the need for fiber optic when recommending the upgraded modem? That would have saved me a lot of time and frustration.
