“Performance 25” Tier Speeds More than Double,
Providing Greater Value and Faster Speeds to Stream, Chat and
Connect on Multiple Devices
Comcast 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 new 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 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.
