I have the exact same problem.  I recently upgraded the modem from the Arris, that had no issues whatsoever, to the XB7 and now have no voice services. No dial tone. This isn't simply a matter resetting the modem.  It seems voice services are turned off for my account or my phone number is associated with the old Arris or something else.  Tech support tries the same thing over and over and I still have the problem.  Xfinity is shipping a new router to my local xfinity store where I am to pick it up and exchange it with the current XB7 (which is brand new).  And it makes no sense to send out a technician in that everything was working fine with the Arris. Very frustrating.

I can truly imagine your frustration @GJ9. There could be a few reasons the phone service isn't working with the new modem. For the most part, the issue is on the backend. I'd be happy to help take a look into this more for you. Can you send us a DM with your name and address?

• Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon

• The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person", but don't do that.

Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there. As you are typing a drop-down list appears.

• Select "Xfinity Support" from the list. An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line.

• Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

• Press Enter or tap the > icon to send it any of those platforms will be able to assist. :)
