re: #181 William Lewis
Means one of your neighbors - and a fairly close physically one - doesn’t have a password on their wireless that they pay for. If it’s a business (bar, restaurant, etc) I’d feel no shame in leeching it. If it’s another Joe Snuffy like you? Well, then, don’t do anything illegal short term and add wifi to your CenturyLink account (it’s easy enough with them).
Following the open-source ethic of my Penguinista kid, I don’t protect my xfinity wifi. I’ve never detected any penalty from it.
