Laptop can still pick up old wifi even though I cancelled ISP
Hi,
I was with an ISP for a month. I used a router and named it AAA (let's just say). I initially put a password for it. It was working for all but one roommate (she couldn't connect at all) so we made it open access since we had unlimited internet. We used it this way for about 2 weeks but that didn't work for her either so we decided to switch. The internet service was terminated the next day and then Bell came in the day after to install.
Bell gave us a modem but we used the same router. I reset everything again and connected the router to the Bell modem. Bell had given us the login name and password and we could all successfully connect. We're a month into using internet with Bell but today, I realized that my laptop could still pick up AAA signal (still unsecured). I decided to try connecting to it and the internet worked.
I'm wondering if this is because we used the same router? If I use the AAA signal, will it take up some of our Bell internet usage? I have no idea what's going on Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you!
