here is what i have done:

Connect wireless router to laptop through network cable, enable Wifi and then I was actually able to connect my cellphone to the wireless network.

But I would like to share my internet from my 3G dongle with this network. I have enabled network sharing to the local area connection yet it does not share

any help would awesome.

I'm a bit rusty at this but you would need to set the gateway address of any computer/device that wanted to share the laptops connection to the address of the laptop I think.

The DHCP is presumably on the wireless router and is assigning the IP address to your phone. However the wireless router is unlikely to know that the internet gateway is actually your laptop and assigning that as the gateway address.

I guess there might be some settings in the wireless router that would allow you to set this information.

Anyway what you need to do, if possible, is check the IP configuration on the phone that it is being assigned by DHCP and see what is being assigned as its gateway address.
