On the converse side I live in a neighborhood that has quite a bit of distance 
between houses yet I can still a couple of neighborhood SSIDs.    If one of 
their guests hops on to my Xfinity Wifi it is going to be with a weak signal.   
Their weak signal is going to drag down the performance of the wireless network 
for all the users on the access point.    

 Comcast enabled the  Xfinity Wifi on my modem and I had a five month battle 
with them to trying to get it turned off.   Comcast kept telling me I did not 
have a wireless gateway and I must be seeing my neighbors signal.   They never 
could fix their records so they sent me a new modem.     A month later I got a 
letter saying they were turning on the Xfinity Wifi.  This time I was able to 
log in and turn it off.
