ANSWERED: How to Connect to an Xfinity WiFi Hotspot

***Updated 5/17/2026***

Stay connected, effortlessly — with Xfinity WiFi hotspots.


With millions of Xfinity WiFi hotspots across the country, you’re never far from a fast, reliable connection. Whether you're grabbing coffee, traveling, or just out and about, Xfinity WiFi keeps you online with ease. It’s simple to use, easy to find, and always ready when you need it.


Why you'll love it:

  • Fast and reliable: Stream, browse, and video call with no worries.
  • Safe to use: Secure hotspots keep your connection private.
  • Save on mobile data: Connect to WiFi instead of using your mobile plan.
  • Easy to find: Hotspots are everywhere — just look for “Xfinity WiFi.”
  • Auto connect: Your device connects on its own after the first time.


How to find Xfinity WiFi hotspots


Look for these network names on your device:

  • xfinitywifi
  • XFINITY
  • Xfinity Mobile


Or, use the Xfinity app and tap the WiFi tab to find hotspots near you. You can also explore the online hotspot map.


Who can use Xfinity WiFi hotspots?

Xfinity Internet, Comcast Business Internet, and Xfinity Mobile customers can enjoy free access to millions of hotspots.

Not a customer? No problem! You can purchase a NOW WiFi pass to connect at select locations.


Supported devices:

  • Apple (iOS 17.1 or later)
  • Android (11.0 or later)
  • MacOS (10.7 or later)
  • Microsoft Windows (10 or later) device

How to connect


Xfinity Mobile customers connect automatically to secure hotspots.


Xfinity Internet customers, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Xfinity app and sign in using the Primary, Manager, or Member’s Xfinity ID.
  2. Select the WiFi tab, then choose WiFi hotspots.
  3. Select Connect automatically, then Auto-connect now.
  4. Follow the steps on your screen.

If your device doesn’t support secure connections, you can still use the open xfinitywifi network.
