Howdy,

http://www.xfinity.net/activate only responds if you're on an
unactivated cable modem connected to xfinity.

https://login.xfinity.com/login only works if you're not.

And neither one particularly works with Firefox. It's chrome all the way down.


I gave up and installed the app. User name, password, cable modem's
mac address. And now it's activated.


I know it's bad form to bring this sort of thing to NANOG, but come on
guys: get your act together.

Regards,
Bill Herrin
