Not out of the box, I don't think. You could use something like this : http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2010/...i-fi-hotspots/

You may get a third party Mi-Fi device which can convert your mobile broadband internet signals into WiFi signals and help your iPad access the internet. There aren't any software tweaks that you could do to access it directly from the laptop.

You can also use wifi tethering if you have a mobile phone and data plan that supports it

There is, you can set up an adhoc wifi network on the laptop and enable internet connection sharing on the voda connection.

A mifi device is the best option though/
