I don't get it. If you have you Powerbook connected to WIFI, why not also the 9500? Why the 9500 VIA the Powerbook?

I'm guessing his powerbook is plugged into the net connection, and he wants to use the powerbook as a router.

Exactly... PB plugged with a ISDN modem (soon with HDSL 2Mbit) and configured as router.
