I've had this work hit or miss. But here's how you do it.
1. Open the Network and Sharing Center.
2. Open "Change adapter settings".
3. Right click on the adapter and select "Properties".
4. Open the "Sharing" tab.
5. Check the option "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection".

I've only done this with a hardwired connection and it was tough to get going. Good luck to you.
