Modem is blinking orange light for new setup

Hi, I am trying to activating modem for the first time at my new place. I followed all the instructions showing in Xfinity app for gateway activation but modem is blinking orange light instead of white light. Can you please let me know the problem?? I have schedule appointment but I got appointment date after two days, it will be difficult to stay without internet for 2 days.

If this is a new service / move in, the other end of the line has probably been disconnected from the Comcast feed. It's quite typical. You likely need that tech out to reconnect your premises to the active Comcast feed at the tap. You won't be able to activate the service with the app if the line is not connected to the system. Good luck ! And please post back here with how things turn out.

Thank you for posting this response. I had the same problem as the previous post, and this is just what I needed to know.
