How Do I get Bluetooth through the Arris AX013ANM box

My old cable box 4K had built in Bluetooth but developed an audio/video lag and the new arris box doesn't come with bluetooth. Any suggestions?

you will need to swap the non-4k DVR for a 4k to get that function back.

@XfinityElizabethA​ The device settings of this particular receiver does not have a Bluetooth option. The higher powers of Xfinity are sending me a new Bluetooth capable receiver.

Hey there @user_c0f711! We're glad to hear that a new box is coming your way!  I'm very certain that once you have that you'll be able to reconnect your Bluetooth device to the box. Only our XG4v1, Xi5, and Xi6 devices have the built-in Bluetooth radio and can connect one Bluetooth device at a time, with up to 7 being saved in storage for use.

Bluetooth on my XI6-A has quit connecting, gave error XRE-22005 for 1-2 days and now gives error XRE-22003. Doesn't stop discovery mode and always discovers all headsets I've tried but pairing fails. I have tried all system refreshes, all box restarts, power recycles, etc. From all sources. Living room DVR is and has been a PX013ANM for like 3 years now, even when the XI6-A wireless box was actually connecting to Bluetooth headphones, so it seems an update or something on Xfinity's end must have messed with the device capability to connect to devices.

Xfinity needs to determine the problem and fix it.

If this is a ploy to make your customers upgrade to a newer box and spend more money, they already get $300+ out of me every month, and for tons of repeat channels at that, shame on the company for it.
