\nWith 94 percent of devices connecting to the Internet via WiFi, fast speeds are only as good as the WiFi that connects them. At home, Xfinity\u2019s WiFi gateways and extenders create a fast, reliable, and secure connection to every corner of the house. Outside of the home, Comcast\u2019s Xfinity Internet customers have access to the nation\u2019s largest network of WiFi hotspots to connect on the go.\n<\/p>\n

\nIn addition to faster speeds, new and existing Xfinity Internet customers can now get a line of Unlimited on Xfinity Mobile included for a year when they subscribe to a 400 Mbps or faster plan. And with WiFi PowerBoost, Xfinity Mobile and Comcast Business Mobile customers seamlessly receive WiFi speeds up to 1 Gbps no matter what Internet speed tier they subscribe to, in and out of the home, on the nation\u2019s largest and fastest WiFi network.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cOur faster download and upload speeds, combined with our world-class WiFi equipment, ultra-low-lag Internet experience, and WiFi PowerBoost that delivers speeds up to a gig, are providing customers with a converged connectivity experience that we believe is unmatched in the industry,\u201d said Emily Waldorf, senior vice president of Consumer Products, Comcast Connectivity and Platforms. \u201cBecause 90 percent of Xfinity Mobile Internet traffic travels over WiFi, not cellular, this combination of products delivers a faster Internet and mobile experience and hundreds of dollars of savings to customers.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nToday\u2019s speed increases are made possible by Comcast\u2019s fiber-based network which has been built to deliver an exceptional Internet experience to the more than 64 million homes and businesses and across more than 23 million Xfinity WiFi hotspots in Comcast\u2019s footprint. It is a culmination of years of research, technological breakthroughs, and massive investments, including more than $80 billion over last decade to build the nation\u2019s largest converged wireless and wireline network.\n<\/p>\n

\nFast download and upload speeds are an important feature of a comprehensive connectivity experience that delivers incredible benefits to consumers, including:\n<\/p>\n
