More Than 2,300 Homes and Businesses Will Be Connected to America’s Smartest and Most Reliable Converged WiFi Network for the First Time
The first residents in Ona, West Virginia, are now connected to multi-gigabit, symmetrical Internet from Xfinity. This is a key milestone in the network expansion project that will connect more than 2,300 homes and businesses in Ona to America’s smartest and most reliable converged WiFi network.
As a new provider in town, Xfinity brings Internet, mobile, entertainment, and smart home services into one simple, seamless solution – giving customers more speed, savings, and control over their connected lives.
“We applaud Comcast for continuing to invest in the greater Huntington area and bringing the residents of Ona a new choice for Internet, mobile, and additional connectivity services,” said Megan Archer, President and CEO of the Huntington Regional Chamber of Commerce.
Residents can visit Xfinity.com/mytown and enter their addresses to check for serviceability or additional details on construction timing. As construction continues, new homes and businesses will be connected in phases – with the entire project expected to be completed in 2027.
This expansion is part of Comcast’s latest investment in West Virginia, which also includes network expansion projects in:
- Ceredo and Kenova – Construction is underway to connect more than 2,400 homes and businesses in Ceredo and Kenova. The full suite of Xfinity services – including Internet, mobile, entertainment, and smart home services – will be available to the first residents later this year.
- Princeton – Construction is underway to connect more than 5,000 homes and businesses in Princeton, with Xfinity services already available to more than 2,000 residents.
- Teays Valley – Construction is underway to connect more than 7,500 homes and businesses in the Teays Valley area, including communities in Hurricane and Scott Depot. Xfinity services are already available to thousands of residents.
- Monongalia County – Construction is underway to connect more than 2,200 unserved and underserved homes and businesses in rural areas across Monongalia County. This expansion, in partnership with Monongalia County, will begin connecting its first customers later this year.
“We’re thrilled to begin connecting the first customers in Ona to our world‑class network,” said Ray Roundtree, Senior Vice President of Comcast’s Beltway Region. “With our fast, reliable Internet, families and businesses can enjoy everything from streaming and gaming to remote work, telehealth, and more. We’re also proud to deliver exceptional value – including a five‑year price guarantee and a free line of Xfinity Mobile for a year with a qualifying Internet plan.”
