however they use a separate DOCSIS and 802.11 channel so if would follow that it would be a separate IP tied to comcast corporate and not the subscriber as well as not taking up your bandwidth.

IIRC there are only three non-overlapping channels on 802.11g and six on 802.11n; I can see more networks than that from my basement. I haven't been keeping up with the technology, but in the ancient of days wasn't the uplink side of DOCSIS also a limited-bandwidth, shared resource? -- Harald
