Also to clear this up google fiber is more like 256GB of customer bandwidth sharing 40gb of "node" bandwidth. Google fiber is GPON and not actual dedicated ethernet links.

All networks period are like this, theres always a bottle neck. My point was that his cable modem can indeed handle more bandwidth than his purchased connection speed.

In which case he's going to be having problems whether they turn on the wifi hotspot or not. So how is it relevant?

Looking at comcast's website the highest speed internet they offer is 105Mbps while the slowest docsis 3 modems are capable of 171mbps. Most isps are pushing 8 channel modems now which can pull over 300mbps. Comcast could offer at least 60mbps without affecting your speed in any meaningful way.

I've never had an integrated modem/router/AP and while I suspect those don't support it all of the home routers i've purchased in the past have supported 802.1x even before I started getting mikrotik/unifi gear. It's just called WPA-Enterprise in the settings.

is $40 a reasonable price? if so www.routerboard.com. Keep in mind that site is a product listing and site and not an actual web store, check out the how to buy link at the top to actually purchase them. Those routers can do everything from round robin connections to actual BGP. Although at the $40 price point you'd have a hard time even maxing out the 100mbit ports it has but step up to the $99 model....

There's plenty of non firsts who succeeded
iPhone, macbook, iPad, iPod iMac. Are you noticing a pattern here?

And yet everyone I've run into with Google Glass I could tell if they were recording or not, bright light or not you can plainly see when they're recording. It's not a matter of opinion it's an absolute nad indisputable fact that you can in fact tell when someone with Google Glass is recording with just a casual glance. A secondary way of telling if someone with Google Glass is constantly recording is they'll never be wearing their glass. The batteries die quick in those things.

not at all. you would plug your router that is compatible with this system into your cable modem and into a seperate port for the building network or whatever and the software defined network would route all of your vlan traffic back to your own router for it to travel out your cable modem, any traffic going to your router but for a different vlan would hit the building network and go to whoevers home router it was for.

RTFA, theres a light that goes on when being recorded

I dont think you understand this analogy. In this analogy the dollars represent bitcoins and the chips represent mt gox's internal units. They represent bitcoins much like the casino chips represent dollars, but as we learned were not backed with actual bitcoins.

What will it run on without fuel? Turning the key off will kill the fuel pump.
