Default Wifi Info Question

Ok so my netbook has been slow and acting up. I live in a highrise so realize there are others out there that possibly may be tapping into my wifi. I really need to change my very easy password. It doesn't sound easy to do though so am waiting for a friend to help me re that soon.

My question is, when I click on my "network sharing" on my netbook, I seem to see others on my "Infrastructure". Example: When I look at my infrastructure I do not just see my Linsys router, but others, especially one Belkin. I do not have a Belkin router. Is this something to be worried about? Or is it just showing people that just are nearby in my apt. complex who are online? I'd show a screenshot but it is a Word doc and not sure how to post it here as an example. Just want to make sure nobody is spying on my wifi or my PC, who managed to figure out my too easy password.

Any info would be appreciately greatly LOL, just to reduce my paranoia if nothing else.
