Anyone ever use a hacked xfinity wifi account?

How do they prevent free-riders, like do they log your mac address like netflix does and restrict the number of devices?

While not exactly what you're asking for, with some basic scripting skills you can abuse the '1hr free pass' indefinitely.

I do something like this (os dependent):

sudo ifconfig deviceid down && sudo ifconfig deviceid hw ether ff:11:ff:11:ff:11 && sudo ifconfig deviceid up && sudo wifi-menu deviceid

Then fill out the signup form with nonsense and you get an hour of interwebs. Repeat every hour.

You can automate the mac randomization,network join, and have it sleep for 59 minutes until it runs again all in bash/zsh. The form part can be automated too with Python - use this script as a starting point: https://www.reddit.com/r/netsecstudents/comments/31fmob/xfinity_wifi_free_internet_session_form_request/

TAILS will change your mac address every time you restart it (on most laptops). It is, however, feasible that they would find out where you're connecting from and track you down based on the wifi signal, but I haven't heard of this happening.

It's just a web portal sign in. You enter login details upon connecting like alot of free hotspots.

You can login freely they don't track to my knowledge. I use for watchESPN n shit but I have used for hotspot with success.
