Hooking into someone else's wireless signal is currently a crime in the USA called "theft of services". It can result in fines or imprisonment. You can also be sued by the neighbor when they caught you on their system. Plus, you run the risk that should the neighbor use their Internet for illegal activies (such as child porn, spamming, harrassing e-mails, etc., it would be impossible for the FBI or police to determine that it was them and NOT you doing it. You could find yourself face charges for their crimes.
You need to spend the money to get your own connection. It is a lot cheaper then committing a felony to get an Internet connection.

If you have a wireless net card it should pick it up, unless they have blocked all outside access. I sometimes get on my neighbor's wireless by mistake instead of my own. I can always tell though because the internet is slow and the connection is bad. Also I don't think your neighbors would appriciate you bogging down their connection lol

Well you buy a router and steal their service. It is illegal. You need to get your own ISP and pay the monthly fee for cable modem or DSL. Around $40 month.
