Not sure what you mean, but by sharing something like:

You have a laptop, with two wireless cards, one giving an internet pipe, and
the other you want to use to share the internet pipe with another computer
that has at least one wireless card?

If so, it shouldn't be too difficult. Just bridge the two cards together,
ICS, and use adhoc to connect the second card with the other computer.

Begs the question of "why", though. If the other computer is in range of
the first computer's wireless card, then wouldn't it be in range of the AP,
anyway? Are you trying to circumvent some type of pay-for hotspot by being
able for two people to be connected but only pay for one? (I could care
less, I'm sure that goes on all the time. Hell, I'd probably do it also.
Just curious as thats the only reason I can see doing the above.)

Cheers,
Eric
