[Hidden-tech] Comcassssssst

[wendy foxmyn]

Thank you kind H-T folks who responded....I ended up calling "my guy" at
Comcast who walked me through this loooong complicated procedure I would
never have figured out.  I am compromised by living in a condo where, when
I open my wifi connection, 15 choices are revealed.
