According to D-link that router can do WPA1, so use that and a super 
long password.

Legally this person is breaking into your "home", call the cops is my 
suggestions, who knows what they are doing that could then be blamed on 
you. If someone is just connecting to an open wifi spot, fine. If they 
are capturing, decrypting, brute-forcing, etc etc, I'd involve the police.
