Hello I am using reliance broadband netconnect, which runs through USB on my computer. Is there anyway, I can share this internet connection on another computer using wi fi? If so, How? What equipment will be required?
Thanks in advance/

You haven't mentioned which OS you're using.
You need to create a WiFi hotspot / adhoc WiFi network. naturally the PC/laptop with the Reliance USB dongle must have a wifi card (built-in or via PCMCIA/USB etc.) as well as the PC/laptop/device that wants to access the Net over WiFi. Not all OS support adhoc WiFi networks.
here's one tutorial - http://www.conniq.com/WinXPNetworking_wifi_direct_connection.htm
If you want to share the connection between Laptop and Desktop, Just connect them With a LAN cable ( Refer Guide.
Next, on your laptop you can share the internet connection with computers connected in a network.
@ Sparx, thanks. I am using Vista on one computer where data card is being used and XP on other which wants to access the same.
@ Amit, No both are laptops.
