USB tether with home's internet?

Ok I have searched and read a few threads about tethering but could not find the answer to what I am looking for. Hopefully somebody can point me in the right direction, I am at work right now so I cannot try anything out until I get home.

I am wondering if I can USB tether using my home's internet connection. I do not have a wireless card in my PC (until it gets delivered in about a week) and do not feel like running an ethernet cord, so is it possible to connect my EVO to my home's wireless router and then USB tether that connection to my PC. Note I am running Ubuntu on my computer. (I read about PDAnet and easy tether, would those options work for what I am trying to do?) Again this is only a short term thing so I do not want to root my phone or pay an absurd amount for an app.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
