I was connecting to my neighbor's Wi-Fi, but couldn't connect to mine. I switched my router to send B only and it's connected everytime also it really helped that I switched it to best performance like Gambatte mentioned.

How to switch the router to B only really depends on the router. I have a linksys and had to go to the router's settings (where you set the encryption key) and click on the wireless tab, and select it there.
Forgot to mention this as well.....the obvious......thanks....
