Sign in successful but not an xfinity user

I am trying to sign into the app after ordering a router for the first time. I wanted to see an order confirmation as well as a shipment delivery time. When I try to log in I get an error saying “access not authorized. You have signed in successfully but you must be an xfinity user to enjoy this service.

Hey, @user_ec0391. Thanks for posting on our community forums. I'm sorry to hear about the error message. To confirm, this is an Internet residential account that you just applied for, correct?

Thank you so much for confirming that @user_ec0391, and to confirm did you receive an email order confirmation after ordering your router? May I also ask if you have created an XFINITY ID yet? You can create one quickly and easily here https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/create-xfinity-username.

I am in the same boat. I ordered xfinity internet and now I want to access my account to see where the tracking shipment is and i am getting the same pop up on the app and the online site doesn’t sign me in. I have an account. I have an ID. It continues to say I am unauthorized. I’m moving to a new apartment and I don’t want my shipment to be taken if I’m not present/ don’t know when it is arriving
