hdmi converter - new x1 box

I have been using an HDMI converter with a Roku box.  Switched it out with new X1 box (not enough wifi in the area to get a consistent signal for the Roku)....can't complete setup.   Rainbow colors of no signal on TV, been on and off with tech support; rebooted entire system, over and over.

Am using all Xfinity cables, etc - waiting for the '60 minute' boost up.

Got it almost to the set up spot, told them "English" and now it said "check your cables".  Now nothing

Anyone have luck using an HDMI converter?  it worked fine with the Roku box.

Hello @abqlinda thank you for reaching out through our forum. I'm sorry to hear that you are having issues connecting the X1 box. Have you been able to set it up at this time?

@abqlinda Could you please send our team a direct message with your full name and full address? Our team can most definitely take a further look at this issue.
To send a "Direct Message" to Xfinity Support:

Click "Sign In" if necessary

Click the "Direct Messaging" icon or https://comca.st/3EqVMu7

Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon

The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person". Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there

 - As you are typing a drop-down list appears. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list

 - An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line

Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

Press Enter to send it

 

See https://comca.st/3KQF8q9 for an example.

Thank you, I have done that, and I got three different opinions.  Mostly they said that an HDMI converter would not work with the X1 box, but didn't say why.  So I'm returning the X1 box and instead am going to attempt to increase the wifi strength in that room, either by getting a better extender or moving the pods around.
