We see them here all the time. Both CableWIFI, BrightHouseNetworks (The name of the cable company) as well as hidden SSID's. They have been stringing them around the county for awhile now. Even started to deploy on 5Ghz. It's pretty ridiculous. Do a site-survey from one of your towers and watch how many thousands your AP's can see.
I heard something about them using them for their new security offering. Allowing an alarm "Brain" to connect to a near by AP via 5Ghz for monitoring.

Startting to see this SSID pop up around town. How is this conglomerate setting up it's APs? Are the likes of comcast and such just adding add'l SSIDs to users gateways / cable modems or are they actually deploying dedicated infrastructure? -Mike _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless
