for all the ignorant people, a wireless signal is completely legal for anyone to use, especially is they dont have a password on it, and even if they did and i guessed their password it would steal be legal as long as i dont search their computer for files, now hows that for LAW, READ A BOOK

You are a criminal if you keep using their internet connection without permission.
If you want to download movies or stream video use your own f***ing internet connection.
Stop deluding yourself that you are doing something perfectly legal, you aren't, you are knowingly using another persons internet connection without permission (not setting a password is not the same as giving anyone permission to use it, just as not locking a door is the not the same as letting everyone who walks past the right to 'borrow' your TV).

Its illegal to use others network without their permission. So before you get into some kind of problem, be smart and get a Broadband connection. Its quite cheaper these days and legal as well...

You do know it's illegal and only recently a man in England was prosecuted for just this thing.
If your neighbor ever finds out i hope he gives you a good kicking..you deserve it.
Get your own Internet connection, cheapskate, it wont cost you much and you wont get arrested.

Wi-Fi is much slower than other types of connections. Furthermore, you signal strength aint better. Try sitting outside, closer to your neighbors, or getting a better WI-FI antenna

It's probably their connection problem that they can only fix... you shouldn't tell them that cuz they'll like call the cops or beat you up...
