Comcast's Xfinity Mobile hotspots deliver up to 1 Gbps

Comcast reports that its new “Xfinity Mobile” hotspots enable customers on its Xfinity Mobile and Comcast Business Mobile devices to access Internet speeds over WiFi up to 1 Gbps. 

“We’re supercharging hotspots to unlock the full potential of our customers’ mobile devices and give you the boost you need, when you need it, to download a large file, stream a live sporting event, or host an important video call,” said Kohposh Kuda, senior vice president, Xfinity Mobile, Comcast. “A billion devices connect to WiFi over our network because it delivers a superior experience. We’ve invested billions of dollars in a network that can support the massive growth in data consumption and our WiFi Boost upgrade is a huge win for our mobile customers.”

• Currently, 90 percent of the mobile data traffic on Xfinity Mobile devices travels over WiFi, not cellular. 
• Comcast has over 23 million WiFi hotspots.
• Comcast has invested more than $20B over the past five years to upgrade and expand the Xfinity network and introduce new innovative features like WiFi Boost to support the constantly increasing number of connected devices consumers use both inside and outside of the home.
