Comcast Expands State-of-the-Art Network to Thomaston, CT 

Comcast is connecting more than 3,500 homes and businesses in Thomaston to reliable, high-speed, symmetrical Internet by expanding its network. This expansion deepens Comcast’s investment in Litchfield County – where the company is undergoing a broader network expansion – ultimately connecting nearly 22,000 residents and businesses across the county to Xfinity and Comcast Business services for the first time.    

Xfinity and Comcast Business services are already available to thousands of addresses in Litchfield County. The company expects to complete the Thomaston project by the end of the year. Residents can visit Xfinity.com/MyTown and enter their addresses for additional details on construction timing and upcoming service availability. 

“Comcast is proud to continue investing in Connecticut with our latest fiber expansion,” said Carolyne Hannan, Senior Vice President of Comcast’s New England Region. “Our network delivers gig speeds, world-class reliability, and the best WiFi experience in-and-out of the home, and we’re excited to help more Xfinity and Comcast Business customers thrive in Thomaston.”   

Comcast’s expansion in Thomaston will enhance digital infrastructure, promote economic growth, and position residents and local businesses for success in an increasingly digital world. The expansion brings Internet, mobile, entertainment, and security services from Xfinity and Comcast Business to residents and businesses for the first time. 

A Network You Can Trust to be Reliable, Fast and Secure 

Comcast’s state-of-the-art network is built to enable residents and businesses to thrive in today’s constantly connected world. Thomaston joins the more than 64 million homes and businesses across the country to have access to a network that is trusted by essential community organizations like hospitals, schools, transportation systems and first responders, and federal agencies like the Department of Defense and FEMA. It delivers gigabit Internet speeds, 99.9 percent reliability and built-in security to help keep customers safe from cyber threats.  

Introducing Xfinity for Consumers 

Comcast’s residential services are marketed under the Xfinity brand, and consumers in Thomaston can take advantage of Xfinity’s full suite of products, including Internet, video, mobile, voice and home security. With gigabit Internet speeds, powerful WiFi that reaches every corner of the home, and super-responsive connections with low lag available with Xfinity plans, customers have a great experience using their connected devices to stream their favorite sports and entertainment content, video chat with coworkers and friends, learn from home or simply surf the web. 

Comcast Business to Power Thomaston

What It Means for the Thomaston Community 

Comcast’s commitment to communities goes beyond building the network and aims to increase economic mobility for the local community and its residents. That’s why Comcast created Internet Essentials, a broadband adoption program that offers eligible households low-cost, high-speed Internet and affordable computers. Additionally, over the past three years, Comcast has invested more than $12 million in cash and in-kind donations into Connecticut nonprofits focused on helping people build digital skills, expanding WiFi-connected Lift Zones and funding connectivity and Internet adoption programs.
