networking an air card.

[Reid]

Anyone done this? i would like to get rid of time warner roadrunner and get an air card for my laptop. but...i would only be able to get online with the laptop.

is there a way around this? can i share my internet connection with another laptop or wireless device?

Yes you can! There is something on your computer called "Internet Sharing"

Here is a link on how to do it if you have XP

I know you can get wireless routers that accept sprint air cards, both of my room mates's parents have them, but last I checked there was nothing available for the verizon card we have.

I tether my blackberry, and can use a usb cable to any computer to do this.

You can also get a PCM/CIA adapter for the desktop to use the air card with that PC.
