I am a novice computer user. Trying to learn more each day.
I have set up my home network through a wifi router connecting a desktop and laptop.
Recently, my laptop will disconnect by itself and a bubble at the taskbar will say there are moe than one available wifi signal. Asking me to choose. I click it open, i will find 1-2 mre signals beside mine. When i choose my own, it will stay connected for a few minutes before disconnecting with the same prompting again.
My question is , to all the experts, is there a way to lock onto just my own without being interrupted by more neigbour's signal? ( although free internet connection is good, I prefer my own.)
I tried changing the channel at the router and disbling IEEE 802.1X box at advanced properties window.
Also I find the wifi signal is affected by my cordless phone (2,4 g hz) and the microwave. Any solution?
Thanks in advance.
