Comcast Increases Internet Speeds for Houston Customers at No Additional Cost
Comcast (News - Alert) is more than doubling the speed of its "Performance 25" Xfinity®
Internet tier for existing customers in Houston at no additional cost.
Customers can now enjoy download speeds of up to 55 Mbps on the
rebranded "Performance Plus" tier. These new speeds are effective
immediately.
"Comcast continues to deliver the fastest Internet speeds to the most
homes, and is also providing the fastest in-home Wi-Fi so family and
friends can get online and do more with all their devices," said Ralph
Martinez, Senior Vice President of Comcast's Houston Region. "We'll
continue to invest in our network and offer the fastest speeds because
we want our customers to enjoy the best possible online experience."
Comcast recently launched Xfinity
xFi, a nw and personalized Wi-Fi experience that provides a simple
digital dashboard for customers to set up their home Wi-Fi network, find
their password, see what devices are connected, troubleshoot issues, set
parental controls and even pause Wi-Fi access on their home network
during dinner or bedtime. xFi gives customers who have an xFi-compatible
gateway unprecedented visibility and control over one of the most
important technologies in their home.
What's more, most Xfinity Internet customers also have complimentary
access to nearly 17 million Wi-Fi hotspots nationwide. Customers can
simply select "xfinitywifi" from the list of available networks on their
laptops or mobile devices and enter their Xfinity ID or email and
password. Hotspots can be found by either downloading the free Xfinity
Wi-Fi App, available on iOS and Android (News - Alert) devices, or by visiting the
hotspot finder map on www.xfinity.com/wifi.
To receive the new internet speeds, most customers only need to re-set
their modems by unplugging the equipment from the power outlet. Comcast
will notify any customers who need to upgrade their equipment - those
who currently have a modem from the company will not be charged to
upgrade their equipment while those who own their own equipment will
need to either purchase new equipment or lease a modem from Comcast to
receive the increased speeds.
