Sharing Ethernet from one computer to another

Hello HP Community. I was wondering if it was possible to share internet from one computer to another. For example, I have a laptop and a desktop. I have the laptop connected through wireless and the desktop plugged into my computer through an ethernet cable. Is it possible to send internet from my wireless connection to my ethernet connection? I've been having trouble with my router where I can't plug more than one connection. One will work and the other will just be cancelled out. That's why I am wondering if this is possible.
