i hope i got this straight. your question is sharing dsl-delivered internet at home with your desktop pc. is the desktop pc connected to directly to the dsl modem? if so, get a wireless router and connect its wan port to the dsl modem and your desktop to one of the lan ports. then you can connect your laptop wireless to the wireless router.
