As I understand it, the Xfinity "incoming" COAX cable is connected from the street to the white panel box in the garage. If you sign up for any Xfinity services, the Xfinity technician will activate any of the COAX outlets that you need in the house from the garage panel box. There will be about 7 or 8 outlets in the house that were installed by the builder, not by Xfinity. You can tell how many outlets are activated by looking in the panel box, but they may not be labelled by room location. You should be able to connect the modem to any of the active outlets in the house. Xfinity does not connect their incoming cable directly to the living room or any other room in the house, only to the garage panel box.
