It wouldn't be impossible at all for them to figure out who it is, as wireless devices have a max range of about 300 feet, and that's without walls in the way - so even less. It wouldn't take a rocket scientist to figure out it's a house on either side of them. And yeah, I think you would show up in their Network Neighborhood/My Network Places under your own workgroup.
My suggestion - I've seen a setting on wireless access points, and I wouldn't think that wireless routers don't have it - it's like an encryption code. You enter a word (or any letter/number combo) on the router, and then only wireless network cards that have the same code put into their settings can access your router.
Might wanna look into that.
