Hi, I have three computers set up, one as a server on a wireless router, and the other two using the wireless PCI cards. I have a problem though, one of the computers is too far from the server to get a signal. So since the clients are close to each other, but only one of them is getting a signal, I was wondering if I can hook up the clients to each other so that they can both use one PCI wireless connection? Sounds complicated, I know so here's an example:

Server- A
Clients B, C


B can connect to A wirelessly, but C cannot. I want to connect C to B with a ethernet cable, so that C can use B to access the internet using B's wireless PCI card. Can it be done? Thanks!

It can be done, but going to need further details; what OSes are we talking about here? What type of connection is being shared (dialup/cable/dsl)? Is the wan connection wired into router and shared that way, or does it have to go through one of the machines first (a la is the server dialing up)?
 
Thanks. We have WindowsXP Home, all 3 computer have them. The server is connected to DSL. I believe that the WAN connection is wired into the router and shared.
