Remove your neighbor's network from the available list that shows up on your Mac: Open System Preferences, Network, highlight WiFi, click on the advance box, remove your neighbor's network name from that box, and make sure your network is at the top.

If your neighbor is someone that won't take things the wrong way you might gently point out the need for network security.
