Well, you just need a couple of iptables rules, as long as
you have your
wireless card properly configurated.
This what I'm using to use my laptop as a gateway to a
wired network (notice
I'm turning it into an ad-hoc mode)

#!/bin/bash
iwconfig eth0 mode ad-hoc
iwconfig eth0 essid AP
iwconfig eth0 key s:yourkey
iwconfig eth0 channel 6
ifconfig eth0 192.168.70.1 up
iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -o eth1 -j MASQUERADE
iptables -I FORWARD -i eth0 -j ACCEPT
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

I scratched a similar itch with a linksys travel device, but this is close to what I wanted to do originally. Thanks for the starting point!
