Nearly 3,000 Homes and Businesses will be Connected to America’s Smartest Converged WiFi Network for the First Time

CHENEY, Wash.: Comcast today announced it has connected the first homes and businesses in Cheney to multi-gigabit, symmetrical Internet from America’s smartest and most reliable converged network. In partnership with the City of Cheney, Comcast’s network expansion project will connect nearly 3,000 homes and businesses throughout the year.

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. Cheney now joins the nearly 65 million homes and businesses nationwide with access to a network that fuels innovation, productivity, and everyday connection.

Residents can visit Xfinity.com/mytown and enter their addresses for additional details on construction timing and service availability. The project is expected to be completed by the end of this year.

Comcast’s most recent expansion to Cheney is part of the company’s latest investment in Spokane County. Last month, Comcast announced that it has completed the expansion of its network in three underserved areas of Spokane County. These projects bring reliable, high-speed, symmetrical Internet from America’s smartest and most reliable converged network to more than 2,200 homes and businesses in Chattaroy, Four Lakes, and Medical Lake.

“Expanding Xfinity and Comcast Business in Spokane County is about more than faster Internet; it’s about strengthening connections that matter,” said Keith Turner, Senior Vice President of Comcast’s Pacific Northwest Region. “By delivering multi-gigabit speeds, affordable wireless options through Xfinity Mobile, and a five-year price guarantee, we’re helping families, students, and local businesses thrive. As we grow, we’re committed to investing in Spokane’s future and partnering with the community to create opportunities for everyone.”
