    I haven't tried that before, but first of all it'a your first card that you
    want to act as client to your ISP, and the other one as AP to your 'local'
    clients. That way, you could allow routing between the interfaces and setup
    some ad-hoc wlan connections, which is fairly featureless and insecure.
    Better insert an ethernet interface into your PC and attach an AP providing
    wlan to your clients to it. That way, you can play around with features
    like WPA, setup RADIUS authentication on your PC and so on :)
