     micky's *computer* *accidentily* connected to his neighbour's WiFi:   
      
      
   This morning I rebooted and on its own, it connected to the wifi of a   
   neighbor, but not to my own wifi   Hmmm after 30 minutes of using his,   
   it just switched to my wifi.  But still not to the cable, which I   
   thought would take priority, plusd last night the Troubleshooter said my   
   laptop's wifi was bad too, the one that hasn't worked since February.   
      
      
     So *instead of* connecting to his "cable" (wired LAN?) or WiFi, his   
   *computer* (*not* micky) connected to his neighbour's WiFi.   
      
     Could he have disconnected the neighbour's WiFi in those 30 minutes?   
   Yes. Did he know how to do that? I don't know.   
      
     As to "bandwidth theft": I'm sure his accidental use, doesn't deserve   
   your harsh condemnation.
