I have my mobile broadband connection working with no issues on my Dell Inspiron i3. I only want to share it by creating a wireless network :roll:

Oh.


Open Settings->Network->Wireless and create a new Ad Hoc network. To use a common denominator for all devices choose WEP for security and create a 5 letters password from 0..9A..F. Note that this a least secure encryption standard.
