If I use my personal laptop at work, connecting to my jobs WiFi, can my employer track what websites I have visited?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Connecting via wifi is no different than connecting with a network cable. You're still being routed through your employer's network connection, so YES!

If I am travelling with a work laptop and I log into the hotel's Internet system can my Internet usage be traced by my employer? We aren't allowed to log into youtube or facebook etc... but if I was using the hotel's connection would this be traceable?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Only if your laptop contained special software supplied by your employer to track your internet usage.

My employer just paid to have Comcast set-up a business internet account, separate from my personal internet account I already have set-up which is also through Comcast. When the technician arrived, he told me I could cancel my personal account and just use the business account through my employer to do my personal computing. He says he does it all the time and mentioned past examples (ie, Boeing employees that work from home, Microsoft, etc.). However, I have concerns about privacy. If plug my personal computer into the Comcast supplied business router that my employer just had installed, can they track what I'm doing? The tech said it was just a matter of plugging it in to one of the three remaining open ports (labeled LAN2, LAN3 and LAN4 - the work computer would be plugged into LAN1 and I would use one of the other ports for my personal computer). I am looking for another job and really don't want them knowing.

If I use my personal laptop with my work wifi, can they see my browser history?

What if I browse using Chrome Incognito?
