the op is talking about the xfinity flex streaming box, not the xfinity cable boxes. i have not found a way to control the streaming box myself.

Is there more then one type of xi6?  I’ve got several xi6 boxes, they are the wireless boxes. The xfinity IP driver works for these the same way at the x1 boxes

Yes I'm aware of what box they are talking about and my answer stands, I've used the Xfinity IP driver and it worked perfectly.

Hello guys, when adding the Xfinity X1 IP driver, these are the instructions which worked great for the X1 boxes but how do you do it on these remotes that don't have the same buttons... or do I have the wrong IP driver.  The one im using is the 2/22/2020 Xfinity X1 driver

SETUP STEPS:

 

1) Activate IP Control on your STB (this requires the Xfinity Remote and an Ethernet connection to the SB):

 

  * Press and Hold the Xfinity button for 3 seconds.

  * Press the "DOWN", "DOWN", "3" buttons.

  * This will open the STB Diagnostics Menu (there will be several seconds of lag while it loads).

  * Scroll down to 'Remote Controls' and select.

  * Scroll to IP Control and select.

  * With the Diagnostics IP Control page open:

    - Press and Hold "A" for 5 seconds.

    - Press "4", "7", "7" buttons ("I","P","R").

    - Press and Hold "A" for 5 seconds.

  * A message will tell you that you are activating IP Control and your STB will reboot.

2) After STB reboot, return to the Diagnostics Menu and return to the IP Remote section.  Verify that IP is enabled, and note the IP Remote LAN Address.

3) Setup a static IP Address registration in your router's DHCP menu (beyond the scope of this document)

4) Reboot the STB if necessary to obtain the new IP Address.

5) In ComposerPro's Connections -> Network Tab -> IP Network section, find the Xfinity X1 driver, and enter it's IP Address in the Identify Window.

6) In the Xfinity driver's Actions Tab, press the 'Pair to Xfinity X1' button.  This will pair Control4 with the STB.

7) In ComposerPro's Connections -> Control/AV tab, make appropriate A/V connections from the Xfinity X1 driver to appropriate endpoints.

😎 In ComposerPro, select File -> Refresh Navigators.

The Xfinity X1 STB should be controllable through Control4.

What remote did you get? The model should be on the back or under the battery cover. 

 

Mine came with an XR15 which still has all the required buttons. Honestly every xfinity remote I've seen has an xfinity button as well as arrow keys for up and down

The model I received only came with an XR16 remote.  I put a photo on here for ref.
