1. yes aslong as you have you LAN cord and a modem
2. Yes. You can use internet connection sharing with an inexpensive crossover cable to connect the 2 computers. If you have a wireless adapter in your desktop, you can connect wirelessly. Details are here http://www.home-network-help.com/internet-connection-sharing.html
3. yes you can but you will need a wireless router to do it, the problem is you have a PCI card and most of the routers only work with the USB Air Card. Cradle Point Makes a router (USB compatiblr) and Linksys makes one that I think may work with your air card. Also you desktop or laptop would need the ability to connect wirelessly. Basically what you are doing is created a secured wifii hot spot in your house. People would need the password to access your hot spot. You need a 3g Wireless Broad Band Router Hope this helps
