Help requested with a different kind of setup

Good afternoon,

As a followup to my post a few months back about covering a residential
park in wi-fi, after finding out that Comcast and SBC won't touch the
project for different reasons, and now knowing I don't have to cover
the park in wi-fi, here's what my setup will be:

One Novatel PCMCIA card, provided by Midwest Wireless, and reliably
offering 110k up/down, inserted into a laptop, which will route traffic
from the static IP on the laptop's ethernet interface to the Novatel
card using Ositis WinProxy. The laptop's ethernet interface will be
connected to the WAN port on a Linksys WRT54GS, which will also have a
static IP in the same subnet as the laptop's ethernet interface. The
WRT54GS will serve both one wired client and all wireless clients,
realistically no more than four at a time total, via a wide-open SSID
and DHCP addressing.

Does anyone have any suggestions regarding this setup, knowing that
this event happens this Thursday? =)

Thanks in advance,
