why does airport change networks in 10.5.8

How do I get my Airport to remember which network I regularly use?


It seems to constantly default to a different one

Go to System Preferences


Click Network


Highlight AirPort and click Configure, or Advanced in 10.5?...


Choose “By default, join: Preferred networks”


Select the wrong access points and Remove those access point swith the minus ➖ button.


Reboot


Go back to the “By default, join:” page and click the plus ➕ this time to add your access point. Enter the correct password, save, reboot, or...


Instead of joining it from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed.
