dial up and wireless

I have dial up at my home with a desktop computer and two laptop computers. I have a modem in each computer. Is it possible to use a wireless router for the two laptops and desktop to connect to the internet when you have dial up? Can more than one be on the internet at one time?

yes you can, you can share your connection with all pc's. What you do is set one computer to connect the internet, run network setup wizard and make that computer share its connection. On the other computers run network setup and tell it to connect to another computer on the network for internet. It will look for it on its own and thats it. Now dialup is slow, so expect sharing it to make it even slower. But it works. keep in mind you need to have wireless cards in your laptops, modems won't help there.

Both laptops have a wireless card. Thanks for the info.
