take a wi-fi dongle, plug it into your PC, create the wi-fi setup. i think your thinkpad has in-built wi-fi. after that share the internet connection.

i gave you the idea. don't know that do you need a Hub for that, i think you don't need a hub. now, what i have done with my one.
we have three Laptops including my one in my office. we created a Wi-Fi network, as all three has inbuilt wi-fi. so, when i need net connection in my laptop, we simply shared the net connection.
