Ah, it's so nice to be in a country where the retail vendors have been
hit with a cluebat.  (Yes, I know it's also the home of AOL.
Nonetheless) Comcast comes in, installs the cable modem, and the guy
points to a nearly invisible pinhole on the back (black hole on black
background) and says "when you go wireless, you need to reset here if
your router won't spoof your MAC".  :-)

That doesn't mean that the service is as good as fiber on bandwidth
and the like, but the human relations are much less frustrating.
