I assume he can see other wireless networks but not yours? Is your Wireless SSID (wireless name) hidden?

If so, your room-mate will need to go into your Wireless Settings and manually add the Wireless Profile, by going to > Control Panel\Network and Internet\Manage Wireless Networks > Add > Manually Create Profile


Hope this helps :)
