How to add neighboring wifi to my exisiting router network?

I have a Netgear model router and Netgear print server. My colleague shares his internet access with me and has provided his SSID and WEP key. I have a wifi network setup between my router, the printserver and my two PC’s (this network has no internet access). I’d like to know how I can have my existing network use my colleague’s wifi and still maintain my private network.

If his wireless is close enough for you to use, you need to set up a wireless access point to connect a network switch to the wired machines, or a wireless range extender to connect wirelessly. You can not use a second router.
