It’s the same equipment that I’ve had for a few years….nothing new. Why do they raise monthly prices on equipment? I did go out and purchase my own modem, I no longer wanted to pay them anymore for something that hasn’t been upgraded…which is the same with the boxes…no upgrade just an upgrade in the cost. Why doesn’t the government step in on this kind of stuff that really does affect homes/families. Ridiculous

You can always upgrade the boxes. Just return the box to the Xfinity store and they will replace it with the latest box. Actually, you don't rent the cable boxes. You only pay a monthly fee for the cable and DVR services. If you own your modem, then you are not renting any boxes. I would suggest upgrading to the 4K cable box, if you don't already have 4K boxes. Your bill will not increase.
