Yesterday morning a new wireless network showed up on my two machines on
the second floor (not on the first floor). One of the affected machines
is XP Pro SP2 with a Netgear wireless card, the other is a Pocket PC
running Windows for PPC 2003.
When the other network shows up both machines loose their connection to
my network and cannot be reconnected. Same thing this morning. I
unchecked "Always connect to non-preferred networks" on the Pocket PC
but that didn't help and I can't find any way to tell XP Pro after SP2
not to connect to preferred networks.
I have never had any problems with my home network before (multiple VPN
DLINK DI-624 router--using WEB 128bit encryption) and this is driving me
nuts.
What can I do to prevent my home network connections from being zapped
by this newcommer on the block?
