I tried that earlier today to no success. I was trying to send my Wireless connection to my Mac via my Laptop's Ethernet Port using an Ethernet Cable. Some programs I was told to user were:

AnalogX Proxy and FreeProxy. They have instructions you can try and see if it works.

Hope that helps some,
Nick

can you get a wireless card for your pc if you dont already have one? i think you can just set up a computer to computer network if you have wireless in both
