I researched it in great detail before switching from Verizon since I was very reluctant to give up Verizon’s extensive and reliable network. Xfinity definitely uses the same network, and all reviews I read confirmed as much, except that actual Verizon customers get priority access to the network in the event the network gets bogged down by excessive traffic. When I went to the Xfinity store to change over my service, the Xfinity technician confirmed this. Since switching over, I have never noticed having my service throttled down, but I also never allow myself to be put in a high population density situation where that would be necessary, so I can’t speak from experience how inconvenient that might be?
