wireless repeater or extender is what you want.

if you have a router already and it's a linksys - www.dd-wrt.com and extend the wireless.

So your going out of your way to not just steal wireless... But amplify the signal so other neighbors can steal it also. Your a public servant.

This takes it to a whole new level, what are you going to do when they find out and turn the security on?

just an update, thanks for the help guys.
ended up going with this sweet toy,

its a linksys range expander, a little expensive at $65, but pays for itself after 1 1/2 months of free internet! (setup was a nightmare btw but works great)
