It is probaby ethical if he allows such, but it may not be legal according to his ISP. If this is behind his back it is illegal as well as unethical. At any rate, check out freeantennas.com; the have several solutions.
Ok, I dont know if its legal or ethical, but I borrow my neighbor's wireless signal, but the signal is "low" and sometimes "very low". My question is how can I boost the recieving power of my wireless card?
Would hooking up a 24dbi gain antenna to my wireless card such as this improve the signal recieving quality?

Or do I also have to buy a wireless lan amplifier such as this in addition to the antenna?
