Sweet!! I'll try that out in the next couple of days. Thanks!
>It's possible, yes.
>One way would require a 2nd wireless card for the laptop, then 'share' the internet connection via the 2nd wireless card.
>The way to do it without spending any money would require two pieces of software on the laptop.
>You'd need this:
>Microsoft Virtual WiFi -
http://research.microsoft.com/netres/projects/virtualwifi/ - this things is cool - it clones your wifi card...hehe
>Then also this thing:
>2HotSpot -
http://www.2hotspot.com/ - this one lets you create your own virtual wifi hotspot.

>...so now by doing this, any other wireless computer you have within range of the laptop could use the connection......pretty neat, huh?

>>There is a desktop transmitting a wireless connection. Then a laptop with a Cisco adapter picking it up and accessing the internet through it. Then a 2nd desktop with a LinkSys wireless card. Can the 2nd PC access the internet through the laptops connection? I know, why not just go from the 1st desktop? Let's say that I need to extend the wireless coverage. I'm in a straight line between all 3 machines and the 1st desktop's bubble isn't big enough to include the 2nd desktop. Can the laptop work to do that? How?
