Hi there,
I want to share my my dial-up connection with a second computer through a wireless router. One of these is connected to my the modem with dial up connection. I have another computer with wireless card on it. Is it possible to share dialup connection by connecting through wireless router?
Help required.

There is huge difference between wireless and dial-up router. Wireless router supports 54 Mbps and you get 28 kbps with dial-up connection. It is possible to connect the both but its too slow and irritating. Alternatively you can try USB plug and surf drive to connect the internet which you can use it in both the Laptop or Desktop. And it is faster than dial-up.

Instated of setting dial-up connection on wireless router, you can get a low-cost access point such as the D-Link DWL-700AP. By using Microsoft's Internet Connection Sharing (ICS), you could configure your desktop PC as a Host computer that would share its Internet connection with other computers. Configuring ICS is a simple process.

You can can simply turn internet connection sharing on from your main computer and it will allow access for any computer in network. Just connect a wireless access point to your main computer and then a receiver on your second computer. Also check the following threads:
