One lives and learns and I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that a support bod didn't know what that signal was for. As for the signal, I'm puzzled it can sit right over the router's signal, slipping in and out of first signal strength place - as shown on inSSIDer's graphs - and not interfere with my link to the router. The days of heterodyne wine seem to be long past.
The screen mentioned above certainly seems to give the option of opting out, but I wonder what would come out of the woodwork if one did. I suppose the first thing would be to lose the right to latch on to other hot-spots.
Given that it's not mine, and the lady in question is a super-duper exec type, I'd better bow out gracefully.
