[1st-mile-nm] Comcast / Xfinity hogging WiFi spectrum

[John Brown]

Seems that Comcast / xfinity is hogging up a bunch of the 5Ghz WiFi spectrum.
I'm seeing more and more comcast AP's around Albuquerque using full
80Mhz wide channels, with higher power output levels.

All this does is significantly increase the Noise Floor and thus
REDUCE the usefulness of the spectrum.

80Mhz channels flat out aren't needed in side a business or a home.
There maybe a few
special use corner cases, but the typical business / home user doesn't
need that channel width.

Ergo the harm being done is far greater than the benefit.

Remember that the FCC rules for 5Ghz is that you cannot cause any
interference on someone else.

COMCAST YOU ARE CAUSING INTERFERENCE.   Please run the script to push
your cable routers/ AP's back to 20Mhz or 40Mhz wide channels.
