said by EGeezer:A side note - the beach house we stay at in Holden Beach is a Time Warner customer - the owner had a Motorola modem with an SMC wireless router behind it, but the admin functions were all available to me. When I first encountered it, it was an open network, default password etc. With the owner's permission I secured the router with WPA/AES, disabled remote and wireless admin and left the config information with the rental office and the user key and setup instructions on the fridge door.
We came back last year and this year, the config is still in place
I did the same thing at a beach house at the same beach. There were still plenty of other networks I could see from the house that were wide open though.
