I use this, usually when I have LAN instead of wifi, to use net on my mobile.http://www.maryfi.com/

One way would be to set up an ad-hoc wireless connection on your laptop. Another method would be to accomplish the same thing through software. I prefer SeventhGate for sharing Internet connection from my laptop. Very easy to use and configure, although each time you restart your laptop, you may need to reconfigure SeventhGate. Small price to pay as it is freeware.

It should configure itself with your WiFi card. 1. Select the right network connection to share. It's probably called Local Area Connection. 2. Set the SSID and Password.3. Click on the Start button.
