What’s a good internet download speed? xfinity speedtest

It depends on how many people use your connection and what you do online. More people need more bandwidth. Generally, 5–10 Mbps per person will suffice. But if several people do a lot of HD streaming, you should think about 25 Mbps per person.

Most individual internet users will be fine with about 50 Mbps, which is only about half the speed offered on the average internet package in the US. Whether you need more than average is up to you.

How fast is Xfinity?

Xfinity offers some of the fastest internet services around. Its top-tier package reaches up to 2,000 Mbps. That’s a ton of speed and it comes with a huge price tag. Fortunately, almost no one needs that much speed, so you likely won’t have to worry about those top-tier expenses.

According to our speed test results, the average Xfinity customer gets about 63 Mbps. The average upload speed was about 10 Mbps. Both fall well above the broadband mark of 25 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload.

What’s the most popular Xfinity internet package?

Based on  speed test results, Performance and Performance Plus seem to be the most popular packages. Those packages offer 60 Mbps, and our average Xfinity speed test result was about 63 Mbps, so the math works out.

The next closest packages offer 25 Mbps on the low end and 150 Mbps on the high end. If the 25 Mbps package was the most popular, we would expect a lower average score. If the 150 Mbps package was the most popular, we would expect to average to be higher, provided that Xfinity comes close to delivering its advertised speeds. Considering the 63 Mbps average is so much lower than 150 Mbps, it’s unlikely Xfinity would be that far off.
