I would get a non-Comcast modem plus a router. That's a sure solution.

There is no turning it off anymore, it's a hidden SSID that forever
broadcasts. I'm fairly sure it's for techs to do diagnostics from the
company phone. The modem is in the new 'mid split' area, there is a
huge thread tracking it on dslreports.

SSID's, but
the RF is still broadcasting. There are some 'RF cages' on Amazon to
'limit your exposure to WIFI' But they're marketed as making your
house
'healthier' and reviews say they just slightly weaken the signal.
Is there a way to properly ground out a cage around the modem to
block
all the WIFI? Many moons ago, back in the days of 802.11b, I put
an AP
into a lead lined pelican case, and was still able to connect to the
WIFI from outside of it. I'm guessing I didn't do something right
back
then.
FWIW though, I am getting 2.4gb/s x 230mb/s through the coax
connection. There's only a 2.5G interface on the modem.
