Remember a number of years ago where a guy had an ASUS RT-N16 and served a bunch of his neighbors with wifi.

I'm in a condo and see WiFi from several neighbhours.  So, I am close enough to share with others, but I won't be doing that. One other thing with the Rogers guest WiFi.  It's IPv4 only whereas the main connection is both IPv4 and IPv6.  I have no idea why they'd do that, as they only provide a single /64 prefix when in gateway mode.  My modem is in bridge mode, which gives me a /56, which can be split into 256 /64s.  I run pfSense for my firewall.

The modems they provide have guest WiFi available. However, Rogers will take a dim view of sharing with your neighbours.

I have some folks with even worse packages than I, who download things that won't put me over my limit. --dave -- David Collier-Brown, | Always do right.

It has nothing to do with your limit. It's about you paying for service at your home only. If you check the terms you'll likely find you're not allowed to share with others. This even applies to those who rent out a basement apartment.

Good point, I don't think there is Canadian caselaw on that, so I'll need to scrutinize the contract... --dave -- David Collier-Brown, | Always do right.
