I think they didn't allow for xfinity being all over the place, or I
saved it somehow even though I'd never connected to it.

I am not familiar with  xfinity. What is it?

 Internet provider like verison. Owned by comcast fwiw.   All of their
routers put out two channels, one for the subsciber and one for any
xfinity subscriber who happens to be nearby.

Early advertisign gave the
impression it was for anyone at all, and once I was halfway into a 2
hour trip when i realized I'd forgotten to take the address I was going
to. I stopped in some little town in front of some old houses and
without getting out of the car, used someone's internet.  I thought it
was the signal for everyone but it was probably the unlocked signal for
the subscriber himself.    But I got the address.
