Sharing a Verizon wireless cellular connection

by acpforme . Updated 17 years, 6 months ago

Hi,

I have a laptop I am using Verizon wireless cellular service via a Novatel usb720 plug-in modem on.

This is the $60.00 per month/unlimited broadband access deal.

What I want to do is share the connection with a desktop in the same room (about a foot away from where the laptop is usually located).

Both computers are Vista home premium.

I am trying to do this economically.

Does it make sense to use a USB bridging cable for the network portion to connect the two computers? (the laptop does not have an Ethernet port).

Can you even tap into the internet connection on the laptop from a second computer when using Verizon’s wireless cellular service?

Thanks.

T
