I have a defective XG1v4-A (Arris AX014ANM) wired 4K DVR and EVEN THOUGH THE EXACT MODEL WAS REQUESTED, THE WRONG BOX IS SHIPPED.

I have a defective XG1v4-A (Arris AX014ANM) wired 4K DVR and EVEN THOUGH THE EXACT MODEL WAS REQUESTED, THE WRONG BOX IS SHIPPED. How do I get the right box? Stores tell me they can’t get the XG1v4. Calling comcast tech support and they ship the wrong box. Each time one is shipped there are charges for initiating it and shipping. This is beyond frustrating!!

Greetings @llllll,

Thank you for taking the time to detail your experience within an official post. I want to clarify that while support teams do have the ability to select the equipment type, there is not a choice to select the exact model type. The warehouse team is in control of the models that are shipped out. There should be no issues that occur regardless of model type that is shipped. Can you tell me a little more about the issue that you are facing and why you are requesting a specific model?

Because of the size of my house I can’t use Wi-Fi coupled boxes. I already have been through this a couple years ago and took almost 6 months to get the correct wired boxes that I have specified above.
Xfinity’s computer system will not allow agents to select the correct box and they keep shipping the wrong ones. I need a 4K wired box which is the model

I do not want an XG1v3 XG2 or Xi6 wireless box.

Please verify warehouse order before it ships”

Thanks for providing that additional context, @llllll . The issue is that you are likely in an Internet Protocol (ALL IP) area, and in these areas the technology prefers the wireless boxes. Even if a frontline agent selects the wired box, the warehouse will automatically ship a wireless box out to the address. I must preface that using a wired box in an ALL IP area could result in some technical issues, but if I am correct we should be able to get around this for you. We'll need to take a closer look at your account to confirm my theory. Please send our team a direct message with your full name and service address.

I don't see how to direct message you. Can you send screen shots, as I have wandered all over Infinity websites and can't find it.

I have been through HELL with Comcast!

I tried all these boxes a long time ago and MUST have the hardwire, 4K boxes I specified. None of the online agents, nor the local stores (have been to two of them) can get the box I want. It needs to be set up by a higher level support member to make sure they ship me the correct box !

Last time it took MONTHS to get the three boxes we use.
