Heh, heh-- why not cancel your service and camp-on his for free;-)

But if you don't want to do that, just move yours up to the top of the
network list in the Advanced Settings screen and it will be the default
logon.

I'm assuming you already know how to quit your ISP...so this is the option
you're asking about;-)

Right click on the wireless network icon on the taskbar, select: View
Available Wireless Networks// Change
Advanced Settings // Wireless Networks// highlight yours// hit Move Up until
it's at the top of the list. Click OK to accept.
