I agree. Just replaced the V3 with the V4 box. Much quicker, I like the minimalistic design and the XR-15 remote is a nice upgrade. Glad to see Comcast take the lead on making these devices smaller.

I’m just trying to figure out where the replay button is on the new XR-15 remote.

Changes to 720 but not back to 2160. New XR-15 remote is pretty nice.

Just got one sent to me from Xfinity. Wow is this thing small. Setup as easy. Works a little snappier than the XG1V3 it replaces. Posted some pics of the size diff. They also sent me the new XR15 remote.

I just got one of these XG1V4 boxes. Setup was a snap as it replaced my XG1V3. However when I checked the downstream signal it is at 10.1 dbmv which is higher than spec. I changed nothing other than the box. My old dvr was reading 7.8. So far everything works fine. I’m just concerned about long term issues with the level above 8.0 Dbmv. The Downstream SNR and Upstream Power are within spec. Can someone tell me if this is normal ?

I just emailed a sales person at my local Xfinity store and asked if they have any. Haven't heard back yet. I'll post a reply if I can get my hands on one.

I am in the Atlanta area also. How were you able to get one of these XG4's ? Did you have a new install or were you able to swap out an old box for one at the Xfinity store ?

My XG2 shows the following signal levels on tuners 3 and 4. I dont believe that anything is borrowing tuner 3 and 4 from this box other than the one XiD that I have. I do have an XG1A DVR but that obviously doesnt borrow a tuner from the XG2. Is this normal ? Tuner 3 and 4 show the same power levels. I am not experiencing any service issues. It just looked abnormal to me.

Heres what I do when i travel. I bring my trusty MacBook Pro with me, log in to my xfinity account and connect the MBP to the Tv via HDMI cable and thunderbolt adapter. I just bring my wireless mouse so i can control the MBP from across the room.
I can watch all the stuff thats available out of home and watch anything thats on my DVR.
If you have a AppleTV you can also do the same and just airplay it to the Apple TV. This only works from a laptop. Comcast blocks airplay from my iphone to apple tv. Dont understand why, I am doing that same thing with my MacBook.
This could work for some of you who want to use that extra TV in your home and not incur another outlet charge.

I just updated the app on my iPhone. It does not do anything more than the previous app did. I am still unable to view my entire lineup out of home. On the ones that are TVGO listed. I thought that's what this app update was supposed to fix.

So would that mean no other router / modem combination would not work besides an XB3 ? If so is it possible to buy my own XB3 ? I do not want to spend money renting one if I can avoid it.

The Xi5 is not available in my area yet. CSR just advised me its only avaialble in the Mountain / Utah area. So maybe some folks on here can give us some info. I have read other forums who stated that using your own MOCA adapter works just as well as a rented XB3.

I have the ability to get my hands on an Arris SBG6782-AC Modem/ router. It is MOCA capable. Could I use this in lieu of having to rent a Xfinity XB3 to transmit to the Xi5 ? Both of these units are MOCA capable. Or would buying and using a MOCA Adapter with my current Arris SB6190 Modem / Apple Airport Extreme Router do the task better ? Any help greatly appreciated because I need an Xi5 as soon as it come available.
