Blinking Orange Light

I am installing the new Xfinity router I received today. I have properly connected all the cables and have reset it over ten times. I followed the instructions accurately in the app but I am only getting a blinking orange light. The apartment complex I live in utilized Xfinity as the main internet provider. How can I fix this issue?

Is this a new service / a new move in ?

Ok what typically happens is that when a tenant moves out, Comcast comes out for a service disconnect of the other end of the coax cable line from the live feed from the street / tap on the pole or pedestal in between move-outs and move-ins. You'll likely need to book a tech visit to come out and reconnect the premises to the feed. It's also possible that a maintenance person from the building may be able to do it. And you'll also need to get the device activated for service once there is a connection to their system. Good luck !
