I can establish a WiFi connection using my PPC and would like to "bridge" that connection to a "non" WiFi computer. I have succesfully used the Wmodem to connect via USB, but this uses the EVDO network. Does anyone know of a "h@ck" that will allow WModem to use the WiFi connection to pass along the USB? thanks in adavance for any info.

PS- this is more of a challenge as opposed to me being a cheap @ss and just buying a WiFi adapter for the laptop.

Mike :D
