Your best bet might be to use a router that's made for Cell usage, such as
a Cradlepoint. That way you can use the cell modem connection to the router
directly, and let it do the network address translation with your two (or
more) computers.
The setup you described would need two networks, with one device "dual
homed", that is, connected to both networks using two interfaces. One
interface goes to the cell connection, and one to the other computer. The
dual-homed computer has to translate the local IP address of the second
computer so that the cell connection "thinks" that there is one device
attached. I don't know how to do this with Windows, though I've done it
with Linux and BSD Unix many times. My guess is that Windows won't let you
do it.
