   The VErizon wifi box is only 3 feet from the laptop. Just before it   
   switched to my wifi, I had gone over there and lifted an 18" cardboard   
   box with stuff (if you want to know what, I'll look) in it from between   
   the wifi and the laptop, then 90 seconds later, I put it back where it   
   was, but that probably is what caused it to switch, and I guess what   
   made it use my neighbor's in the first place.   
      
   The box has been there for weeks but I don't restart the laptop very   
   often. Later I'll restart again with the box in place and see if it   
   connects to my neighbor.
