A microwave probably fits through the seam in your lead lined case.  A was 
talking once with an IBM guy who worked in some kind of RF shielded room.  He 
said if he wanted his cell phone to work inside the room he just had to put a 
dollar bill in the door.

Subject: [AFMUG] RF Cage for WIFI

I've got a Comcast residential Modem that I can't get the RF turned off
in.  I haven't been able to find the right phrase at support to get them
to do it.  So far All that's happened is they've removed the 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.
