    How to make a network from a wireless connection?

    My desktop connects to the internet with wifi on a verizon cable setup/router which I don't have direct access to except the wireless ssid and password.

    I shared my wireless connection through the wired connection to another computer using network manager. I want to do the same thing except instead of sharing it to one computer I want to share it to a router which then has it's own whole newtork. Network Manager has several connection types that look interesting but I have no idea what they mean. Do I want to set up a VPN, am I wanting a bridge, or am I just wanting to share to other computers? Once I know what type of connection, I need to know how to fill in the settings, like IP adn gateway.... Am I on the right track?
