Is it possible to use a Windows XP Workstation or a server as a router for a
wireless laptop ?

I have this computer equiped with a 3com wireless card and a regular network
card, so what i want to do is setup a ad hoc network (peer to peer) and use
my apple ibook to connect through that card to my regular network.

I realise that the speed is very limited but it is a way to work wireless
without buying the expensive base stations.

Please, any help is highly appreciated.

Thnx,

Edo
