What I'm trying to do is use a crossover ether cable to connect computer A to computer B, and have computer A access the internet through computer B's linksys wireless G adapter. Both computers run WindowsXP Pro. Computer B has both wireless and wired net adapters. All wired adapters config with static IP, will I need static IP on wireless as well?
While I could buy another wireless card, i already have said hardware. Is this possible? Would this become a sort of DMZ?

Thanks so much!

Yes it would work but computer a won't beable to see any other computers on your network. Does your router not support a certain number of ethernet connections? If it does that would be the way to go.
