If you see your client frequently disconnecting and reconnecting, it is very likely that you have IEEE 802.1x authentication enabled on the client but not on the Access Point.

To turn it off on the client, go to the Authentication tab in the properties for your wireless connection and uncheck IEEE 802.1 authentication.

In every neighbourhood of any size, where the residents have any money, you will find multiple homes using WiFi networking. Depending upon how you setup your WiFi LAN, and your neighbour sets up his, you may occasionally find your computers connecting to his WiFi access points. The ethical and legal debates aside, you are generally best off when allowing your computers to only connect to your own access points.

    •Use a unique value for your SSID, but don't use your name, phone number, or address.
    Enable the SSID beacon on your access point(s).
    Designate your SSID as the only Preferred SSID.
    Disable the option to "Automatically connect to non-preferred networks".

For additional discussion, see Make Your Wireless Computer Connect Only To Your Network.
