Comcast free hour a day checkin

Comcast gives me a free hour for each tablet. So figured I'd check in before anything else ... Sore throat so drinking tea. Think I have all my docs picked out & tomorrow is appointment making time ..

For the parents out there ..

My name is August West, and I love my Pearly Baker best more than my wine.
More than my wine - more than my maker, though he's no friend of mine.

Most Internet Providers in the States allow people who have an account with them to add up to a certain number of people (usually up to five) to also use that same account. Comcast/Xfinity is one of them. If you have a friend or family member who has an account, no matter where they live, they can add you to their service without charge, and they can also set permissions so that you don't have access to their Comcast/Xfinity (or other provider) email, account settings, or other features that have personal information. This works for both mobile and stationary devices, where each user name is counted as one account, no matter how many devices you use with that new account. You only need to be in a place where you can access the provider's WiFi network.

It's a simple process. I've got three other people on my Optimum account, and I've never had a problem. Same feature is also available with Netflix and other online services. Just need to know someone with a Netflix account who's willing to provide you with this cost-free and risk-free service. My sister has had Netflix for years, and she added me to her account a couple of years ago.

I'm surprised at how many people either aren't aware of or don't use this feature. The providers don't hide this, and they all offer step-by-step instructions on their Web sites.

Comcast\xfinity is what I was using; but do to the new net neutrality laws & such they are only allowing WiFi now if have one of the higher costing cable packages. B\c of course Comcast are greedy pigs .... But w\ my anxiety under control I can get to more places now. If it truly came down to it I can get my brothers laptop & hack my neighbors haha...

But b\c I have no friends here & most my family use FiOS I'm gonna have to figure something out..
