Not to sound offensive, but how am I supposed to get to my Dropbox if the problem is my Wi-Fi?

You can always get to your local copy, since it syncs.

Having said that, I'm not sure twirlimp's Dropbox suggestion was linked to your WiFi problems.

What I'm saying is that I couldn't send the message because of the Wi-Fi situation I'm dealing with. I always keep my stuff in my Dropbox. I just can't always respond when I want to because my neighbor keeps multiple devices connected to the Wi-Fi while he's doing something else, like cutting someone's hair. I'm at Starbucks on my phone right now.

Unless he's got a really large number of devices connected, that should not be a problem. I have around 10 devices on my network, and never a problem. Do you have good signal strength when you do have network access?

Well its a combo of his activity plus my old azz computer. I'm using a refurbished Lenovo ThinkPad X61. I've had it for almost three years now.

I don't consider three years to be that old for a computer. Most likely, either you have a weak signal because of walls, or you have a very large number of networks around you broadcasting on the same wireless channel. Put "WiFi Analyzer" on your phone, and you can look at the strength and number of networks on different channels. If possible, move the router to a channel where there are few existing networks, and/or they are weak.

Thanks, not my router, but I'll suggest it.

There are several screens you can scroll though. If you don't know, or care, what most of them are showing you, go to the screen with the star rating, and just pick the channel with the highest rating.

Honestly, I like this one better. Just look at it. Maybe it doesn't match the era, but the font is spectacular. It actually looks like someone wrote it on the cover. The logo really needs to be textured though. Sry for the big pic!
