Comcast yesterday revealed that it has opened its network of approximately 274,000 public Xfinity WiFi hotspots throughout its service areas in and around Savannah, Ga., and Charleston, S.C., for customers and non-Xfinity customers to use for free, ahead of Hurricane Idalia.
Comcast has also staged emergency generators and fuel trucks in Augusta, Ga., to support a quick response. The company has brought in additional technical and network restoration teams that are ready to be deployed as the storm’s path becomes clearer.
