Sharing Cellphone Internet Access with 2 Laptops

Forum General Connectivity : Cell Phones, WAP, Mobile Internet Sharing Cellphone Internet Access with 2 Laptops

If I connect to the Internet via my Motorola e815 cellphone and my
e815 is connected to my WinXP laptop via the USB cable can I hang
my LinkSys WRT54G off the RJ-45 10/100 connector on the laptop
and share high speed Internet access with our other laptop?

I have read elsewhere that MAC Address Cloning may be involved
(whatever that is).

Another hardware option, and a preferred one if possible, is the smaller
LinkSys 5-Port Workgroup Switch EZXS55W Ver. 2.0

Thanks! doc
