No coax hookup

I am looking to get Wi-Fi for my apartment, but have found that there is no coax cable hookup/outlet. Is it possible for me to get Xfinity Wi-Fi without a coax hookup?

You do need the coax. 

Apartments and sometimes even townhouse developments can be a unique case if they weren't previously wired.  Sometimes there's an agreement run by either the association or the property management company for internet service.  Contact them or if it's privately owned, talk to the landlord before installing cable.  Perhaps you are stuck with DSL (phone line).  Cellular 5G can be an option too with someone like T-Mobile, if you don't want to use their provider, and if it's available in your location.

Hello there @user_31bcd1. I hope you are having a wonderful day. Thank you so much for reaching out to us about your interest in getting Xfinity Wi-Fi. You will need to have an outlet in order to connect the modem.
