Comcast Comcast Xfinity just started offering same-day Wi-Fi for new customers, ending the tyranny of waiting a day or two. These customers can receive one of the company's Gateway modem/router hybrid units on the very same day they sign up for the service. The devices are delivered "often within hours" and the Xfinity also offers in-store pickups.
There are some caveats here. As previously noted, this is just for new customers. Also, hardware delivery is only available in 20 US markets, though Comcast says that'll expand significantly in early 2027.
