Fiber internet in Boston — questions people ask

What internet providers are available in Boston apartments?
For most Boston apartment renters, Comcast/Xfinity has been the dominant option. Boston Broadband is expanding as a local alternative with flat transparent pricing, symmetric speeds, and no hidden fees. Check your specific address — we're adding new buildings across Back Bay, South End, Fenway, and Downtown regularly.
What hidden fees does Xfinity charge in Boston?
Common Xfinity fees in Boston include: modem/gateway rental ($15–25/mo), broadcast TV surcharge ($21+/mo even on internet-only plans), regional sports surcharge, and an infrastructure fee. Together these can add $40–60/mo to the advertised rate. Boston Broadband charges one flat price — no equipment fee, no surcharges.
How do I stop my Xfinity bill from going up every year?
The only reliable way with Xfinity is to call and threaten to cancel — what's called the "cancellation game." Boston Broadband eliminates this entirely. Our prices don't escalate after a promo period. You pay the same rate year over year, no negotiation required.
Does Boston Broadband work in older apartment buildings?
Yes. We have experience working with Boston's older MDU stock — pre-war buildings, converted brownstones, dense high-rises. Our team works directly with property owners and managers to plan installation. In some cases fiber is already in the building; in others we work with the landlord to bring it in.
Is there a contract for Boston Broadband residential internet?
No contract, ever. Start service, cancel service — your choice, any time, with zero early termination fee. Our pricing is the same whether you're on month one or month thirty-six.
