Default wireless network using a Sprint wireless card?

Hi,

Is it technically feasible to have a laptop with internet access through a Sprint wireless card drive a wireless router so that other pc's can access the internet through that single Sprint card? Maybe some other way to approach?

No other internet access is available at this location.

Thanks...

Thanks a lot...I have have wireless networks in place today, but this would be in a location with no broadband access other than a wireless card. I appreciate your help.

Yes it is possible to run a network from a single pc connected to the net by using Windows Internet Connection Sharing... this would involve having your laptop (which is internet connected) fitted with a second network card or wireless network card and then using that to connect to the other pc(s)
