Upgrade to xb10

I currently have an Xb7 gateway and would like to upgrade to latest xb10 which I believe will greatly improve the quality and performance of my wifi. What do I need to do in order to upgrade?

Concern moved here to the Customer Service help section for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.

Hello @tharealisttony thank you for reaching out over Xfinity Forums. Working from home myself, I like to ensure I'm on the most up-to-date equipment possible to get the most out of my home network and completely understand wanting to check if upgrading is possible. 

The XB10 was limited to our full duplex locations that offered symmetrical speeds, but there was a recent update that customers on 1 Gig or above non-symmetrical speeds could now upgrade to the XB10 if the equipment is available (there have been limitations in inventory). So you've contacted the right place for assistance and would like to look into the equipment upgrade further. 

- Does your location offer symmetrical speeds, or are you on 1 Gigabit download or above internet speed?

I have the same request, and I sent a DM. How can I find out if I qualify for an XB10? I’ve had the top tier service for over 8 years, and I have speeds usually over 2gig.

Direct messaging isn't allowed until an official employee asks you to do so; it's against the Forum Guidelines and the Acceptable Use Policy to send anyone an unrequested DM/PM.  Also note, if you do send one without being asked to do so, it could possibly be ignored.
  
 Please post your issue in public in the proper forum so that it can be addressed either by other customers or by an Official Employee.
