CM700 end of life?
I have recently had connection issues with Xfinity and they keep asking about my router (CM700) and they tried telling me today it was at "end of life". Is this true? last time they came out they...
Ah, I had seen someone mention 4.0 in a Reddit thread and it was 2 years old so I just assumed 4.0 existed by now. Well, at least I won’t waste my time looking for something that doesn’t exist now, so thanks for that.
As far as comcast goes tho, yeah that makes a lot of sense… I really hope my area gets another ISP option soon, there needs to be more competition to stem the price hikes and **bleep**ty service. Like.. I pay $87/mo, you can’t come out and check things and just let me know if I need to upgrade without also charging me $100?? Certainly they can afford 1 freebie a year.

I am semi-rural with not many bundle options here except Comcast. lately the fixed wireless systems, AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile have taken a big bite out of local Comcast for internet only customers. Fiber is not even a gleam in someone's eye and the cable providers have chopped up the pie. None of them have had the need to poach across the dividing lines.
There is a good Xfinity_Comcast sub forum over on Reddit. Success stories do exist there, you just have to wade through the complaints about price increases. It is a good option to avoid the customer support phone line or the on-line chat service. Here is the link to check it out: https://www.reddit.com/r/Comcast_Xfinity/.
