Windows 7 connects to a neighbours network instead of my own
Hi all,Ive recently installed the Windows 7 beta on my Laptop, an Acer Aspire 5720. Ive come to set up my network and it all seems to be working fine apart from one issue that i am having. Whenever I start up the Laptop, W7 automatically connects to a wireless connection, however it is not automatically connecting to MY wireless connection.It seems to be connecting to an unsecured network that somebody down my street has. I can solve this issue by simply disconnecting from this stranger's network and selecting my network from the list. I am wondering if there is a way to configure W7 to connect to my network automatically?In previous versions of Windows you could restack the available networks in the order that you wanted Windows to connect in, however i cannot seem to find this is W7.Anyone have a solution? It's probably right in front of me!!
