If your wireless access point will be connected to the same ISP and your wireless laptop will connect to this access point, there is no single problem with this configuration. Just the bandwith of your internet connection will be shared amongst the two computers instead of only one.

Practically means, that is one computer will be downloading some large file, the other computer may experience slower internet connection. But it depends on how fast is your internet connection.
