boxA, eth0 to boxB, boxB wlan0 to network, same as LQ network wiki?


Basically, I want to connect my desktop to my laptop's wlan0 connection. The desktop is connected to my onboard eth connection with my laptop. Is there anything more complicated regarding this type of connection that cannot be solved by the lq wiki located >> http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Network_Setup

I'm not asking for the whole bucket here, I just can't figure out where to start.

I've got a Linksys ADSL router modem connected to laptop.
Linksysy ethernet bridge connected to Desktop.
this works.
Haven't got a working PCMCIA card.

I think You'll need a bridge to connect to desktop LAN or put
a PCI card in it.
