      • Live in an area where Comcast Internet Service is available.
      • Are not an existing Xfinity Internet customer and have not subscribed to Comcast Internet within the last 90 days. *If you are already an Internet Essentials customer Comcast will assist you in migrating your account to be paid by WPS.
