In more or less terms: yes.


any help would be great.

Look in the DHCP Active Clients/Active IP table of your router. If there are any entries there that don't appear to be on your network, do a release on them and change your WEP/WPA keys immediately.

I'm assuming that you are using WPA and have set a password other than the defaults, in which case there's a reasonable chance you're secure.
