My computer keeps jumping its wireless connection from my Linxus router
to my neighbors 'undefined' network. How can I set up my network card
to only connect to my Linxus router???????

Thanks,

Scott

To start, look in your wireless card/adapter's configuration. Probably in a
tab called Advanced, look for a setting "Desired SSID" or similar. Set that
to your SSID. You might also make sure you're using a different channel
than the neighbor, and set that as Desired Channel.

Since you can get your neighbor's signal, he can probably get yours as well.
Be sure you've enabled security on your system, at a minimum enabled WEP, if
not WPA, if available.

ps do you mean Linksys router, or a Linux router? big difference.
