Hi All!

 

I just recently moved into a new house that was prerun for coaxial cable, which all terminates in the garage. When Xfinity was here, they installed a gray weatherproof box on the outside of my house to connect the cables. I would love to acquire another one of these boxes for the inside of the garage so that I may clean up the bundle of coaxial cable that is nailed to the wall with clips. Does anyone know if Xfinity would potentially provide me with a second weatherproof box? I looked at Lowes and they didn't really have one that was large enough and the one that Xfinity used I think would be a perfect size but I am having trouble locating where to get one. Kind of wishing I would have asked the tech to leave a spare while he was here.

water/weather-proof is not normally needed when in a garage/carport. Three boxes are listed below. normally Comcast will bring one cable  to the point you describe, and put in an AC powered zero gain splitter to connect the coax cables.

I have a plastic exterior xfinity box on my house.  Found it open with green wire disconnected and hanging there.  What should I do.  Should it have a lock on it?
