No dial tone with new gateway. Worked with old one.

No dial tone with new gateway, worked with the old one.  Old gateway returned to the store when I picked up the new one, but now my account shows two gateways.

I have the same problem.  I just installed the new gateway and now there is no dial tone on landline.  All incoming calls go directly to voicemail.  I've reset the gateway.  The phone is connected directly to the gateway, so it is not house wiring.  I have confirmed phone connections on the gateway are applied correctly to the telephone port, applying them exactly the way they were in the old gateway and as per new instructions.  Television and Internet are working.  I have rebooted the gateway, and it did not solve any problems.  I cannot be down for days like so many of your other customers are experiencing.  I hope you can see how concerning this is.  The remote technician rebooted the gateway and said the television and internet services are working.  I told him a third time it is the voice (telephone service).  This is a KNOWN ongoing problem.  Why did they send out broken gateways?  Does anyone know if there is a class-action law suit over this?

Having the identical issue here!  Just connected new Xfi gateway and no matter how many times I reboot the Router/Modem we have no dial tone.

Can't get any help on the Xfinity app, virutal assistant is no help.

Would someone PLEASE step up and assist?
