sharing internet from a wireless source

the new apartment i have moved into only has wireless internet available. (damn apartment complex has contract with only 1 company so i've got no choice of providers). i live with 2 others but the isp registered the account with my mac address.

so to avoid paying for 3 separate accounts, what would be the best way to share the internet with my roommates?

hate to disagree with ziody, but you won't need a second wireless card. i share my internet access with ppl all the time in ad-hoc mode and all i had to do was configure my host correctly. this looks like it has all the steps i took.

hope this helps
