Comcast Expands High-Speed Internet Access in Wisconsin

In a significant move aimed at enhancing digital connectivity, Comcast Corporation announced on June 9, 2026, that it will be expanding its multi-gigabit, symmetrical Internet services to over 5,500 homes and businesses in Manitowoc and St. Croix Counties, Wisconsin. This initiative underscores Comcast's commitment to providing reliable and high-speed Internet access, particularly to underserved areas.

The expansion will allow residents and businesses in these Wisconsin communities to benefit from Comcast’s Xfinity services, which integrate Internet, mobile, entertainment, and smart home solutions. By providing a unified platform, Comcast aims to deliver not only speed and savings but also greater control over users' connected experiences.

Kalyn Hove, Regional Senior Vice President of Comcast Midwest, emphasized the company's dedication to enhancing connectivity in regions that require it the most. “By expanding our network across Manitowoc and St. Croix counties, we will be helping more families and businesses access the high-speed, reliable Internet they need to work, learn, and operate in today’s digital economy,” Hove stated.

Construction for the network expansion is already underway, covering nearly 300 miles across both counties. Comcast expects to service the first customers by the end of 2026, with the entire project slated for completion by the end of 2027.

In Manitowoc County, the expansion will focus on several townships, including:

In St. Croix County, Comcast plans to fully build out services in Baldwin and Woodville while also targeting underserved areas in Hudson Township, Somerset Township, and St. Joseph Township.

The Xfinity suite of services that will be made available to the new customers includes:

In addition to residential services, Comcast Business will also provide tailored connectivity solutions for businesses of all sizes. From small startups to larger enterprises, Comcast Business focuses on delivering secure and reliable Internet, advanced networking solutions, and mobile services designed to enhance productivity and scalability.

Comcast Business Mobile promises fast, dependable 5G connectivity, flexible data plans, and access to a robust network of over 23 million WiFi hotspots across the nation, ensuring that businesses remain productive regardless of their location.

Beyond just connectivity, Comcast's initiatives aim to foster economic mobility within the local communities. The company’s Internet Essentials program offers low-cost, high-speed Internet and affordable computers to eligible households, further promoting digital inclusion and accessibility.

Comcast's expansion in Manitowoc and St. Croix Counties represents a crucial step toward bridging the digital divide and enhancing the quality of life for residents and businesses alike. By investing in reliable high-speed Internet access, Comcast not only aims to improve connectivity but also to stimulate local economies and enrich community engagement.

For residents interested in learning more about this initiative, Comcast encourages visits to their local Xfinity stores or the Xfinity website for updates on construction timelines and service availability. As the project progresses, it promises to transform the digital landscape of these Wisconsin communities.
