Comcast Ups CA Web Speeds

Comcast (NASDAQ:CMCSA) is introducing two new Internet speed tiers in California, Performance Pro at 100 Mbps and Blast Pro at 200 Mbps, for both new and existing customers. Customers who currently subscribe to several Xfinity bundles will automatically be upgraded to either Performance Pro, increasing their downstream speeds from 75 Mbps to 100 Mbps, or Blast Pro, increasing speeds from 150 Mbps to 200 Mbps.

To get the new speeds, most qualifying customers will simply need to re-start their modems, though some may need to upgrade their modems. Customers who lease modems from Comcast will be able to receive upgraded modems at no additional charge.
