Here's how it works:
• Sign up.
• Pick up your WiFi equipment at any Xfinity store today — or get it shipped, with delivery as soon as same-day where available.
• Plug in your Xfinity Gateway and follow step-by-step setup instructions in the app.
• You're online — no technician visit, no appointment, no wait in most cases.

Is there a contract for Xfinity student internet plans?
No. All Xfinity Internet plans have no annual contract. You can cancel any time without penalty. If you choose to lock in your rate with our 5-Year Price Guarantee, you can still cancel anytime — so you get price stability without being locked in.
What internet speed do I need as a college student?
For most students, 500 Mbps is enough for streaming, video calls, gaming, and studying. A 500 Mbps connection can handle multiple roommates online simultaneously with speed to spare.
If you share a house with 4–6 roommates and want zero buffering during peak evening hours, the 1 Gig plan may be right for you. At $50/mo with your student discount, it's priced similarly to what other providers charge for significantly slower speeds.

Can Xfinity Internet keep up with student life?
Yes. Xfinity's fiber-powered network is highly reliable. With our 99% reliability rate, you can be confident in your connection whether you’re in online class, streaming your favorite show, or gaming. Unlike 5G home internet, Xfinity's wired connection doesn't suffer from wireless interference or signal variability, giving you a more consistent experience.
With 500 Mbps or 1 Gig download speeds, you can stream 4K content on multiple devices simultaneously without buffering. Plus, Xfinity delivers latency in the 10–20ms range, which is well within the threshold for competitive online gaming.

Why should a student choose Xfinity over other internet providers?
Xfinity is the best internet provider for students because of our student discounts, same-day setup, and flexibility (we don’t lock you into an annual contract). You’ll even get a prepaid Mastercard when you purchase select speeds — $200 with Gig internet or faster, or $100 with 500 Mbps.
All Xfinity Internet plans 300 Mbps or above also include one free line of Xfinity Mobile for a year, so you can save even more.

Can I take my Xfinity Internet with me when I move?
Yes. You can transfer your Xfinity service to a new address within Xfinity's coverage area and keep your student pricing. Check availability at your new address at xfinity.com before signing your next lease.
If you choose a 1-year student plan term, your rate will move to standard pricing after a year. If you want multi-year price stability, consider the 5-Year Price Guarantee option, which locks in your student pricing for five full years.
