Enable Internet Connection Sharing on the dial-up Internet connection.
If it asks which connection to use for the home network, tell it to
use the Wireless connection. I've written a web page with details:

What i did was to allow the network setup wizard to do its work on both
computers and it did wonders... now am able to do what i wanted...

Hi.
You have much better chance to make it work by going with Option 3 as per
