It sounds like you are trying to use a 3G cellphone/data interface on your
laptop. This is not the same wireless system used for networking by a
wireless router or network wireless interface.
Many of the current laptops(Netbooks in particuliar) are available with a 3G
cellphone/data interface. They may or may not also have a wireless network
interface module.

I have a broadcom wireless utility manager program and a usb style dialup
internet usb hookup. I have a printer that is wireless to a router, but I
don't use a router. How do I print wirelessly? I have set the printer to
ad
hoc and followed the windows XP directions for my laptop, but when I right
click the 3G connection in "network connections" the connection
properties
does not have the same options. It has general,
options,security,networking,and advanced... Unlike the tutorial which has
general, wireless networks, advanced. I am assuming the broadcom wireless
utility is where i need to start. If that is so then I have done a
network
bridge. Hope you can help me, Chad
