iCamera 1000 can't update firmware to connect to Xfinity Home Security

I have 2 iCamera 1000 devices that I'm trying to add to my Xfinity Home Security system and they stall at "updating firmware".  I found this closed post which didn't address this specific issue

https://forums.xfinity.com/conversations/devices-and-equipment/pairing-icamera-1000-issues/602dafd4c5375f08cd18970d

I have tried all steps here:  rebooting gateway, rebooting touchscreen, resetting iCamera by holding button for 20 seconds, plugging into Port 4 of gateway using dongle, I even logged into the admin interface of the camera and set the time zone / NTP to ensure no issue there.  I've looked online for iControl iCamera 1000 firmware downloads but find nothing.  Current firmware on both:  V3.0.01.07

When plugged into Port4 using the dongle the touchscreen finds the camera but always stalls at updating firmware.  I've tried with both cameras and verified it's recognizing the MAC address of the correct one however it's the same result each time
