Hi guys,
I just want to put this to the forums as I have no clue if this is possible. Ok my set up at the moment is: Black Macbook 2007, one LAN connection to the internet, one new iPad, one iPhone. I'm currently don't have a router so I'm using the airport card in my Macbook to create a wifi sharing hotspot so my mobile devices can be connected to the internet. I'm wondering can I use an app like air sharing on the iPad and stream using the hotspot connected on the macbook. Air sharing works fine when both iPad and macbook are connected to the same wifi network with standard router. I don't know if this set up is possible.

Anybody have any ideas?

I don't see why it wouldn't work if it works on a regular wifi network. There's no difference between those two types of network from the application's perspective as far as I know.
