How to Block Your Neighbor’s Wi-Fi Network From Appearing on Windows

in dlike •  5 years ago

To block a network, run the following command, replacing “WIFI NAME” with the name (SSID) of the wireless network. This is just the Wi-Fi network name that appears in the standard Wi-Fi popup menu.

netsh wlan add filter permission=block ssid="

WIFI NAME

" networktype=infrastructure

This command filters based on the network name. So, if your neighbor renames their Wi-Fi network, you’ll see the new name appear in your Wi-Fi list.

To undo this change and remove a network from the blocklist, run the following command and replace “WIFI NAME” with the name of the Wi-Fi network:

netsh wlan delete filter permission=block ssid="

WIFI NAME

" networktype=infrastructure
