Creating a network with multiple desktops?

Question

I'm attempting to create a network so all the computers at work can share the internet. However, we are unable to get a router due to company policy, so there is no wireless, but the desktops do not have wireless cards anyway. Is there someway to accomplish this? Creating a link of multiple desktops so they can use the same internet source. (They all have internet access, but one has the ability to catch a 3G signal, so I'm trying to link them all to this computer so the 3G signal can be shared throughout the computes) So is there any way to do this?
