3. Those figures you quoted 2.4 etc are the WIRELESS speed. Kinda irrelevant.

Find out what the DOWNLOAD SPEED is that you now have for xfinity. Probably something like 20 or 50 mbps (megabits per second). That is the standard measurement unit.

If you have less than 100 and they are going to offer 100, then that's pretty good. Providing it doesn't cost you more!

PS: MB is megabytes and is a measurement of disk space.
