http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4537323&postcount=14 Once you have the ppp link working between the phone and the PC you can set either device to act as a gateway for the other. In your case you would want the PC to be a gateway for the phone. When I'm traveling I typically want the phone to be a gateway for my PC, so that I can use the phone's internet connection.
