Activate Xfinity pod

Hello I seen numerous posts about this issue yet no one has updated your post as to what was the fix to get their xfi pod activated. 

I'm getting the same issue of "sorry we ran into a problem please try again or go back to the previous screen. "

Thank you for reaching out to us @user_510ska! Just to confirm, have you already tried:
Signing out of the app


Deleting the Xfinity app


Redownloading the Xfinity app


Restarting the Wireless Gateway by unplugging it from the power for a full minute and then plugging it back in?

I have the same problem. i get a screen that just says

Let’s try that again

sorry we ran into a problem. Please try again or get back to the previous screen. 

when I select “get started” in pod activation in the xfinity app. 

I’ve tried again many times and it always does this.
