Imagine, a free conection, and you have the nerve to complain, oh by the way using an unauthorized connection to a persons / companies internet connection is a serious misdemeanor in some states.

No, but there are ways to speed up your computer (which will make your internet run WAY faster!!)!
-Use an adware/spyware remover regularly
-Defragment your computer regularly
-Stop unnecessary programs from running on startup and in the background
-Get an external hard drive and store all the content from your computer on there, only keeping your programs on the pc.. Your computer will run better (and faster) than new!
..And your computer should get the credit for speeding up the internet (or blame if it's not fast enough) -- rather than trying to speed up someone elses wireless internet!
Good luck, and enjoy the SPEED.. (when all your homework is done)! ;)
PS. A decent external hard drive will cost you around $120 (American $).

hmm... i'd suggest that you get yourself an internet connection... or move to another apartment with good reception...
