Bluetooth isn't designed to compete with wireless local area networks. Even its close-range throughput of 1 Mbps doesn't compare with the 11 Mbps that the emerging standard for wireless LAN, IEEE 802.11, offers.

also works at a range of about 10 meters.

but if you still want to do it just get a usb blutooth card. it will act just like a regular network card.

The best solution, IMO, would be to have a standard wireless network with a Bluetooth acess point on a computer, so you can have a "hotspot" for bluetooth devices (like phones, etc.)
