X-Class Rollout and new XB10 Gateway

When I joined Xfinity recently I was able to order 1.2G/40M service.  Within the past week it has been updated to 2.0G/300M.  

I dislike making assumptions, but in this case it seems perhaps we are headed here to having X Class becoming available shortly.  According to an agent I spoke to, FTTH is not required to get X Class tier.  

Should this upgrade happen, would I be entitled to an XB10 gateway regardless of how recently my current gateway has been in service.

Hi there! we’ve been gradually expanding access to X-Class services, and that new 2.0G/300M tier you're seeing is a strong sign that the area could be on the path to higher-tier capabilities. Super exciting stuff!

 

We always want you to have the right equipment to match the service you’re paying for. So if your area becomes officially X-Class enabled and you upgrade to that service tier, we’d absolutely make sure your gear is updated to support it—no matter how recently you got your current gateway. 

 

We would be happy to check if your area is eligible. Can you initiate a direct message and start with your full name and address? To start a direct message, you must be signed in. Please click the "Direct Messaging" icon in the top right of the page next to the bell, and send your message to "Xfinity Support". Talk to you there!

You won't need an XB10 until they implement a DOCSIS 4.0 system in your market area in the future.

Hi Xfi it’s. I just moved over deo

 FIOS to take advantage of your x-2gig symmetrical plan. Unfortunately they sent out modem and xb8. Xb8 only has 1 2.5gb port and 3 1gb ports. So it is basically useless for the 2g symmetrical plan. I need to the xb10 in order to use the speeds. Otherwise I am paying for nothing. My area has been upgraded to x.

not sure what X-Class means

June 26, 2025 called xFinity & our internet speed was doubled.

“Your Xfinity Plan,  2 GIG, Internet Download speeds up to 2000 Mbps; Upload speeds up to 250 Mbps”

Rep on phone said XB10 would be shipped to me

week later XB8 arrived, which i have had for a few years

went to xFinity store near my home was told they do not have XB10 in store & would be months before they get it

week or so later called support & was told Tech would visit my home with & install the XB10

as Tech walked up stairs carrying the XB8 I told him thanks but we have the modem already

Tech said XB10 was in the city but only going to new customers

struggling to understand why after being an xFinity customer for almost 25 years I can't seem to find anyone at xFinity that can really help me now

our internet speed is super strong, thanks to the speed being doubled however the XB8 cannot deliver the speed I was promised on 26 JUNE 2025

super frustrated

I got a text from comcast yesterday saying my address was upgraded to x-class - I currently have the plan 2.2g download and 300m upload. How can I do a direct message to ask if I can upgrade from my sx8 to an xb10 gateway?
