I would use this opportuniety to give them either the blurry-net or the 
Upside-down-ternet:
http://www.ex-parrot.com/pete/upside-down-ternet.html

but sicne this might fall under the theft-of-service law... The same 
that make getting satellite TV for free a criminal offense, I would at 
least talk to the police... even if it's just for advice on what's the 
legal definition...

The "third party firmware" is also a good advice :

I recommend either the tomato firmware, Openwrt or dd-wrt:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenWrt
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DD-WRT

I would also recommend what I run, and that is pfSense (but you would 
need something a little bit bigger to run it):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pfsense

And last, but not least, make sure it's not a rogue process on your own 
machines... A virus or trojan or something of the sort... boot a live-cd 
and scan the entire thing, your mac included.
