Title: Internet Connection
Post by: Sark79 on March 19, 2007, 05:48:24 PM
I was wondering if there is a way to stop connecting to another wireless router? ( not sure if this is the correct IT  terminology  :D )  as you are probably aware, I am crap with computers.

When I fire up my laptop, it keeps connecting me through a ZyXEL? . I have a Belkin.  It must be a neighbour.

Can I click something to stop this happening?


many thanks

In your wireless connecting settings (either the Windows one or the Belkin software, depending on which you use) there will be a setting to set the preferred order in which to connect to available networks.

You seem to have this other network set higher than yours - remove it and you should be AOK.

Or you could just cancel your connection and use your neighbour's for free, if he's going to be ignorant about wirelesss security settings. :)
