Default Sharing Laptop Mobile Broadband on PDA via Wifi

I have a mobile broadband card from 3 for my laptop. I know I can access using my sync cable, but can I access the internet on my PDA using Wifi?

I have a Dell Axim and a HP 6915.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Only if you set the laptop and pda as a peer-peer wifi link.

You'd also have to bridge the 3 net and wifi links.

Hi

Thanks for the reply. I followed your advice and got it working using ad hoc peer to peer. Then ran network wizard to set up internet sharing on laptop to bridge the two networks.

And it worked!
