Xfinity WiFi Hotspots
Xfinity WiFi Hotspots is a nationwide WiFi network that provides fast and convenient internet access on-the-go. Included with Xfinity Internet service at no extra cost, users can stream content without using up their mobile data. The Xfinity WiFi Hotspots app now features a security profile update to enhance user safety and privacy while using the hotspots.
The app offers various features such as seamless connectivity at millions of hotspots across the country, automatic creation of Xfinity passpoint and 802.1x profiles for secure connections, and assistance for iOS devices to connect to Xfinity WiFi hotspots. Additionally, users can easily locate nearby hotspots through the "Near Me" function, view hotspots on maps with directions, save favorite hotspots, and filter by business categories. Hotspot locations can also be downloaded for offline use.
To use the Xfinity WiFi Hotspots app, users need a WiFi enabled device running iOS 12.0 and above, an Xfinity Internet service (Performance tier and above), and an Xfinity ID. Existing Xfinity Internet customers can find their Xfinity ID or reset their password through the provided links. Comcast Business Internet customers can also access their username or reset their password through specific links.
It is important to note that continued use of GPS in the background may drain the device's battery life. However, the Xfinity WiFi Hotspots app is designed to automatically stop GPS usage when the device is stationary. Users can disable GPS within the app by adjusting the location settings on their device. Some app functionality may be limited in this case.
