Hotspots and Internet Connectivity Through Xfinity

• Hotspots across the country will be available to anyone who needs them for free, including non-subscribers. You can find a map of hot spots here. Just use “xfinitywifi” network name and launch a browser.
• Data plans will be paused for 60 days, which will give all customers unlimited data for no additional charge.
• No late disconnects or late fees for those who contact the company about not being able to pay their bill.
• Internet Essentials, their broadband adoption program, is free to new customers

Low-income families who live in a Comcast/Xfinity service area can sign-up for Internet Essentials, the nation’s largest and most comprehensive broadband adoption program. New customers will receive 60 days of complimentary Internet Essentials service, which is normally available to all qualified low-income households for $9.95/month. Additionally, for all new and existing Internet Essentials customers, the speed of the program’s Internet service was increased to 25 Mbps downstream and 3 Mbps upstream. That increase will go into effect for no additional fee and it will become the new base speed for the program going forward.
