    I have an internet connection running from my modem to my wired router (ie. not wireless) this runs into two desktops. My one desktop has a wireless card which i purchased when i went away to university. Can that wireless card send a signal to my laptop to connect me wirelessly to the internet? I've tried Ad-hoc"ing" the connection but it doesn't connect the laptop to the internet just the desktop. If anyone knows how to make this connection information would be greatly appreciated.

    Desktop 1
