Wireless Keeps Dropping

I have a user that has a WEP enabled wireless router (Linksys).  RIGHT next door is a bar that has the SAME router, but its NOT WEP enabled.  The bar's router is for the public to use when they are in the bar.

His wi-fi keeps dropping connection on the WEB Enabled because of this Unsecured Router.  I have removed it from the list of Available Wireless Networks, but it just keeps happening.

(Not really a connection thing) but for the sake of security, you should consider blocking MAC addresses and also consider WPA.  Just WEP isn't enough IMHO.
