thank you for comments cdm!   i had just seen several media reports that there was expected to be volume deployment in 3rd quarter 2013  (arris for comcast under rdk), which is now, perhaps h/w eq mg2402.   of course there will be test markets and initial beta deployments. I was hoping someone posting in these forums about getting new box for x1" might report they have started to roll! we can then see how they work, if trying to request one is not only feasible, possible, but sensible!     best wishes! ...

yes whether called x1 or x2 or x5 it seems these are all still the boxes made by pace. and there are so many issues and problems. the new hardware from arris is supposed to solve many issues. and be deployed 3rd quarter 2013 (now)   any updates on when these boxes are arriving or if anyone gets them right now today> check your rear labels for manufacturer name (arris? arris-moto?) and model number (mg2402?)   ps comcast assigns model number rngxxxx (residential network gateway 1234 etc, this is not the model number we wish to know!!) ...

Maybe their model will address many of these annoying problematic issues. I hope to hear if someone finally gets one, or if Comcast rep can say when they are starting to roll and where! ...

hi i assume since i am in south jersey with triple play i am eligible to buy an upgrade to x1 service. my question is, since i have no great faith in the pace box used heretofore, is the 3q2013-promised comcast-arris box for x1, new, perhaps called mg2402, be what i can get or ask for? exactly what model will i get (please specify make and model not the comcast name such as rngxxxx or x1 dvd) thank you so much. jk ...

What is the make or manufacturer, and model number, of your new X1 DVR? It may be Arris or Motorola, or simply one of the older PACE units being recycled. ... View more
