Using wired network with N80 for internet

[prox]

Is there anyway of using the USB PC cable with an N80 to gain access to your PC's broadband connection. I know this happens in reverse, where your computer can use the 3G Internet connection from your phone.

But when I am at work and I want to get some updates for my phone, such as Maps, then I would rather use my work broadband connection, and since I do not have a Wireless network, there must be some way to use the connection I already have? Isn't there?

Thanks

If my memory servers me, this was possible, but was more hassle than it's worth.

What about buying a cheap-ass Wireless AP? - get a couple of the guys around you @ work with WiFi phones to chip in?

i also just use an WAP, they quite cheap for their usability, around 500 bucks

I never heard with wired route, only the other way around which the pc uses phone connection
