Spreading the 3G love via WiFi

UK mobile operator 3 are looking at spreading the HSDPA (3.5G) love all around your home with a special wireless router. I like this idea, I like this idea a lot. Right now I'm on 3's mobile broadband in an abode that doesn't have ADSL or cable. Only the laptop I'm typing this on can use the connection and that is a bit of a pain. I've tried setting up an ad-hoc network using the Windows' Vista networking wizard and despite connecting, there's no connection (ie the other devices see this laptop but can't use its connection).

A company called DOVADO advertise a mobile broadband router here and it even supports the E169G that 3mobilebuzz supplied me with. That's kinda handy as the E169G can't be used on my Eee PC without a lot of hoops to be jumped through (more than this blogger thinks he can manage!)
