There are 2 options available to you. If you know the brand of wireless access point, you are able to try find a repeater or bridge for that particular brand. Eg. If they using dlink equipmenk, the DWL2100 can act as a repeater for it. Quite a few brands of wireless equipment will only bridge to the same brand.
The second option is to use a "generic" style bridge, ie. One that you are able to set to act as a "client" on their network. The Senoa client/bridges are ideal for this and have a good power output too. I believe some linksys equipment does this too but I have never tried it. One thing to be careful of, when you are using a bridge, rather than client/bridge, some equipment maps its own mac address to the IP address you use, and will not allow you to have more than one real ip on the other end of the bridge. This caused a few problems for me Hope this helps.
