What is the difference between WiFi and Comcast Internet 2go service?
WiFi is used to provide a high speed wireless connection within a limited area (in tens of feet) like a home, office, or coffee shop. WiFi is commonly referred to as a Local Area Network (LAN) technology. Comcast’s Internet 2go Metro service is based upon a 4G mobile broadband technology called WiMAX. WiMAX provides mobile broadband network across a much broader coverage area than WiFi. WiMAX is commonly referred to as a Wide Area Network (WAN) technology, due to its ability to provide a much broader coverage area; e.g., covering most a metro area, where available.
