See http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Linking_Routers

I would recommend repeater bridge mode on your routers.

says first router must be in ap mode. can't repeat his signal unless in repeater mode can i?

Your neighbour's router is in AP mode, right? You can have as many repeaters chained as you want as long as one end of the chain is an AP.
