I just got a PC Data Access Card thru my wireless company so that I can
access the Internet on my laptop. I also have a desktop computer that I like to use. Is there a way that I can network these two computers together and use the wireless connection from the laptop on the desktop? What equipment would I need and is it hard to set up? Thanks. Pat patetc |

Hi
I am not sure it would work since these type of cards are not always standard. However you can try, you need a regular Network Card in each computer, connecting them with cross over cable, and using Windows ICS for routing. The principle here, http://www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/xp_ics Jack (MVP-Networking).

Or you can add a wireless card to your desktop computer as well...
