Greetings. Hopefully someone can help me. We have had a wireless network
running in our house for several months now without issue. The system
consists of a host unit (desktop) and two clients (one laptop and one
desktop). The clients are tied to the host wirelessly while the host uses an
ethernet cable. All components at D-Link products.
Last night the clients suddenly stopped connecting to the internet. The
hardware is working correctly according to the device manager on all fronts.
I have tried to reconnect and repair the problem without success. We have
also tried to set-up a new wireless network that does not help either; as
well as uninstalling and reinstalling the network adaptors.
On the desktop client computer, I noticed another "wireless connection
available" that was not been present in the past. When I move the client
laptop in the same area as the client desktop; it also shows the additional
wireless connection. The connection is titled "MCGILL"; which happens to be
the last name of a neighbor two doors over from us. They say that are not
using any type of wireless computer network in their home but it seems odd.
I have tried to delete the MCGILL connection but neither client computer will
allow me to do that.
I have run the windows help for wireless issues and did not find anything
that fixed this problem.
We would greatly appreciate any help!!!! Thanks!!!
