Wireless Troubleshooting

How do you avoid wireless network interference from neighbors?

Five of my neighbors have wireless networks within range of my house. I think the interference is affecting my signal strength on my own wireless network. How can I fix it? I use WPA and MAC address filtering to keep people off my network. I just wondered if it was possible that interference was weakening my signal strength because there are so many wifi networks in my area.

1. Change the channels that your router is on. If I remember default is 11, change it to 3 or 6 and see if it fixes the issue.
2. Use Wi-Fi security softwares to secure your data
