I think your neighbour is just a pathetic paranoiac. yes there's a little danger, but so small, he's not supposed to noticed it. linky (http://www.newswireless.net/index.cfm/article/3048) (sure I can make the internet say anything I want :p ) What yoou should do is close your wireless one night, crank up your radio all night, and finally ask him wich one he prefer ;)

Tell him his complaining has given you deadly ear disease! Sue the pants off the bastard!

or that you use the internet to contact your only friends, and by turning it off he would cause you severe emotional trauma.

Or just turn off your SSID BROADCAST option within the router. You will still be able to connect, but he will not see it. Then after a couple days, (after you have played along) ask him if he is feeling better since you "turned it off.."
when he says "Yeah, thanks!" or something to that effect, then you get'em :evilgrin:
Call him out and tell him to stop being a lamer hypochondriac ****.
"Love thy neighbor as thyself" and some ****, right?

+Rep dude! Do this killalot. Do this or I'll be at your door. You see, i suffer from a rare condition called reverse-hypochondria. I think I'm fine, then it turns out to be something horrible, more often than not life threating. As a result, i hate Hypochondriacs. This is not a joke. If you're a hypochondriac, you're a waste of NHS resources. Whinny bitching about imaginary radiation from a wireless router? It's actually less than you get from a mobile phone.
Ooh...you gotta Punk him. Or is it Punk'd?

lol im kinda like you dave i had a broken knuckle for ages when i finaly realisd and went to the doctors it had already healed
This whiner needs to be explained the differences between ionizing and non-ionizing radiation.
You might be able to sell him a faucet screen to 'protect' him from the radiation on his cell phone. Make sure it's brass, so it's shiny.

Lol wow... this just seems silly. Im usually alllllll for not doing things that might cause harm or illness to others, but come on ... the wireless radiation is making him sick?
I also say go with the plan mentioned above but before you break the news to him that you never shut your router off let him see you bringing home a "bigger more powerful 802.11n router"
Or whenever he complains you could just tell him that if he has a problem with it to take it up with the local goverment and that when that fails he can build a Faraday cage around hims house/apartment. Then he will be safe from all the evil radiation that society is leaking in to his house.

Put one of these bad boys on your roof... How long do you think it'd be before he moved out? Haha!
Edit: Is this the culprit?! Nice to see he finally found a good use for his 'now the government can't read my mind' hat.

At my lake house, we have those bug away devices that plug into your wall. They make a clicking sound. Well, my friend came over once and he was almost immediately sick after walking into a room with one of the "clickers" installed.
Hmmm...
Tell your neighbor to stop being such a pussy or he can just move.

Could of been a co-inky-dink? I know someone that is like that with high pitched noises. Slightly different, but similar principals...

I wonder if he gets sick everytime someone uses a 2.4Ghz wireless phone around him as well???
DaveW

I've an idea. Get some cardyboard tubes and some silver paint, and make some sort of huge device that you then tell him...oh, i dunno, tell him it boosts your wireless signal to a huge range, maybe a couple of miles. Then tell him he might want to wear a foil hat like the one above when he's coming over to visit.
Then watch him go ape****.

*Sigh* this tool is a waste of space, so it really doesn't matter. I'm gettin' all peeved jsut imagining one of my neighbors with the audacity to come up and tell me something like that.
Who cares if he gets sick from a 2.4ghz wireless phone.. He can take this 2.4ghz wireless dick in his mouf'.
Cause that's how we do it down in Screwston Tx.

I guess my sarcasm wasn't conveyed properly in my post. :D My point was 2.4Ghz phones are more widely used then Wifi gear. I would guess that the "radiation" from a cordless phone isn't much different from Wifi gear. I would almost put money on the fact HE has a cordless phone. :D

OMG... That gave me a good laugh!!! No offense to armadilloben, but its funny how we forget that we are talking to people on a global scale here..
It reminds me of something that happened not too long ago, when there were som riots going in France. I was in the break room at the office getting a soft drink. There is a TV in there and it was tuned to CNN. The reporter was was reading the copy and she came to the one part that mentioned that a majority of the rioters were black. EXCEPT, instead of saying black she said "African-Americans".. I was like "Did she really say that??" to the others in the room. The sad thing was NOBODY knew what I was talking about until I spelled it out for them.

lol, that's going too far. Damn political correctness is ruling our lives!
my suggestion with the wifi thing is wait till your neighbour is out, then make purchasement of large reems of aluminium foil and proceed to wrap his house in it (if it's a flat, do the above with the door) leave a note saying "I was concerned with your illness so i took measures to protect you from my negligence."
alternative, mock up a letter from the leukemia (sp?) society saying "wifi has been found to cause serious radioactive birth defects, which shouldn't bother you because nobody would mate with you in the first place you sad demented loser!" you could make it more official, then at the bottom use the word "sucker!"
