Thanks for your help; yes I am talking about a laptop.  I have it mounted in my van on a docking station, which is how I happen to have a PCI slot available.

It's kind of old -- Toshiba Tecra 8000 -- so it doesn't have a built-in NIC at all.

I actually have my desktop connected to one of the wired ports on a wireless router I bought to go with my cable modem.

What I want to do is:

1) communicate between the two without having to drag the laptop inside;

2) access the internet from the laptop likewise;

3) access the internet via cellular when on the road; and

4) access wifi hotspots when I travel by air or when I'm staying in hotels or with family/friends.

Thanks.
