Your housemate has a single box containing a DSL modem, NAT router and 
wireless AP with no ethernet port?  Or do they have a AP+router with 
only one ethernet port (attached to the modem?)

If the latter another possibility is to buy your housemate a new router 
with wireless and multiple ethernet ports for their birthday.

That wouldn't be much more expensive, you'd end up with a more standard 
setup, and it wouldn't necessarily be harder to set up than a bridge.
