Arris svg2482ac modem 2.4ghz, 5 ghz lights blinking when in bridge mode after provisioning update
Have been having SERVICE HELL with Xfinity after a provisioning update 3 weeks ago to my ARRIS modem svg2482ac. The update caused the 2.4ghz, 5 ghz lights to start blinking even though I am in BRIDGE mode. Bridge mode disables the router/wifi feature of the modem (hence the 2 lights should not be on). Of course, as usually support is trying to pawn this off on Arris. In the last 3 weeks promises were made/broke,, rudeness by XFINITY customer service. They caused me to loose sleep last night when I did factory reset on the modem( had connection issues ). Was able to set bridge mode on again after a while. Called support today,
1. they provisioned the modem again, caused the lights to start blinking again
2. they told me they opened ticket to FIX group and to expect call today from them (am not holding my breath).
Come Xfinity programming staff, did you not properly test the update??????
Does anyone else have similar issue?
Here is note I found on Arris regarding modem updates by cable operators which would explain my issue at this time.

Called them again today since they never called me back ( surprise, surprise ). Got passed to tech support and they were talking to me as if I did not know anything about my problem. Still trying to blame the modem MFG when I told them I did factory reset and then had them reprovision the modem ( caused the 2.4, 5 ghz lights to start blinking when i had the modem in bridge mode). Very unprofessional of them to do this to me, then I ask for supervisor finally. He says to hold while transferring me to his supervisor, and all I hear is the line ringing. Finally after several mins a person answered and was not the dude's supervisor. That UNPROFFESIONAL TECH SUPPORT person needs to be placed into a customer relations class. Anyways, the nice lady who did answer suggested something the UNPROFESSIONAL TECH SUPPORT people did not ask to do: did you try to disable bridge mode and then re-enable bridge mode now that you did factory reset followed up by reprovisioning. I go, well did not think of that one because was so fustrated with my issue resolution. Tried it and now only 2.4ghz light is blinking (wow progress after 3 weeks). Anyways this nice lady got me to her supervisor and hopefully the supervisor will follow through with my request because she has never had to handle a request to get a ticket opened with Xfinity IT dept. We ended call on a good note for now awaiting for her call back on Monday to see.

Hi Xinfinity,
I opened other call 3 days ago. Was promised by the tech i would be contacted 24-48 hours plus got bullied by Candice in your Phillipine call center when i explained the whole situatation, that really left very, very bad impression of that call center..... Well, no contact last night ( 48 hrs later ). Plus have not heard back from Rachelle ( fix group ) from last week as promised. Plus went to local store here in , Macomb Xfinity store on monday April 5. Deneen [Edited: "Personal Information], store manager would see what she could do on her end. Sent email yesterday to her asking for update. This has been going on for a month now and no resolution to the issue Xfinity has caused to the modem. No more waiting on Xfinity's excuses, poor customer service, un-proffessional conduct on 3 way calls with Arris, being bullied by your call center reps and so on. I will be expecting a resolution to this by 5 pm, EST today, april 9, 2021, if not sooner. BTW, Is your CIO's email address: [Edited: "Personal Information"] ? also is your customer service VP email address: [Edited: "Personal Information"] or [Edited: "Personal Information"]?

I tried to re-engage using prior customer chat session by posting in it. So far no response for last couple of hours. Great customer service response...
