It obviously worked, seeing as how you're posting on the forums.

That's called wardriving (generally) and it's illegal.

It's only illegal on protected networks. If you have to break into it, then it's wardriving. If you're accessing an open access point, then it's not really illegal.

Is this a wired router? If you plugged it into your cable modem or dsl modem, it doesn't have a choice but to find your isp.
