ATLANTA, May 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ Cox Communications announced today that the increased internet download speed introduced at the onset of COVID-19 for its low-cost internet package Connect2Compete is now permanent. The speed was temporarily increased from 25 to 50 Mbps in March 2020 to support families in greatest need. We initially provided an internet speed boost to our Connect2Compete customers to ensure families could continue learning and working from home without interruption, said Pat Esser, president and chief executive officer of Cox Communications. Although many restrictions are being lifted and people are heading back to schools and workplaces, we want to make sure regardless of circumstance, our customers can have the internet bandwidth they need to be successful.
