Activate Gateway No App

Currently trying to activate my Xfinity gateway at my new address but I don’t have the app since my phone version is lower and I can’t update my service because it thinks my address doesn’t exist when it lists it in the system what do I do?!

Not sure if this method works anymore (YMMV). Try calling 1-855-652-3446. That is their self-install device activation line. Have the RF / CM / HFC MAC address and the serial number of it handy when you call. Good luck

user_0thnqw Hello and happy Sunday! I'm sorry to hear that you aren't able to download the app with the phone that you are currently using. Did you still need assistance getting your equipment activated? If so please send us a DM to Xfinity Support with your full name and address.

To send a direct message:
Click "Sign In" if necessary
Click the "Direct Message" icon or  https://forums.xfinity.com/direct-messaging
Click the "New message" (pen 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.
A "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
