Shades of Leo Laporte:
»www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0zt4opqL18I have the following local networks (among others) listed:
2WIRE951
ATT280
ATT912
ATT8686
PACE034
optimumwifi
TWCWiFi
xfinitywifi
linksys
linksys-guest
I am guessing that the 2Wire is also AT&T; the Pace could be either AT&T, or Sonic.net, LLC.
Mine used to show up as PACEnnn, but now is, "Tenkai". I am a Sonic.net, LLC "Fusion" customer.
The "wifi" ones are interesting. I believe that Comcast (Xfinity), Optimum Online, and TWC are partners in providing mobile access to their respective networks for their "Road Warrior" customers. Have to see if my sister can connect on her next visit.
The rest, like mine, have user-defined names which don't necessarily have any obvious significance; except for one which appears to be an Asian name.
Six, of sixteen, are not secured.
