    Hello... can I ask a few questions to help narrow down the problem:
    1) Can you successfully make a wired connection to your network

    2) Which operating system do you have - Vista, XP, or...?

    3) Which make of computer are you trying to connect to the network

    4) Is your password a WEP or WPA key? WEP can sometimes cause conflicts with newer operating systems

    Thanks....

I can't open my facebook? why?please help me?

Are you not able to load the page at all? or is it showing invalid access. credentials? If its saying that you have invalid username or password, and you are sure about typing your correct credentials, then it is most likely that your account has been compromised. Try to use the forget password functionality and make sure you are still able to open the email associated with your facebook. Please dont hesitate to ask, should you gave other questions.

Is your wireless network secured ?
If you are trying to connect to the secured wireless network, make sure that the network that you are typing is correct.
If you are not sure about the network key
then check the network key on the router.
You said that MAC is able to connect to the neighbor's wireless network.

Slow identifying 2wire686

Are you trying to use wireless? If so, do you have poor signal? I would suggest browsing to your modems interface. Type gateway.2wire.net into your web browser. Click on the Homenetworking icon. Select wireless settings. Type in your system password. Increase the power of your wireless setting located towards the bottom of the page. You can even try changing the wireless channel. Save and then retry to connect. Make sure you are entering the network key correctly.
