networking with dialup connection

[shewolf1]

I am a networking newbie.. and have run into a problem and am not sure how to resolve the whole issue. In short I use dialup connection informed the computer store that I needed something that would work for networking on a dialup connection. What they sold me doesn't work and according to the manufacturer their firmware does not support dialup.
The computer store told me that I would be able to get networking on a dial up connection if I now buy and Apple Wireless Bay Station. The mfg told me that yes that is compatible with their system but the firmware still would not allow a networking on a dialup connection.
Now what I wanna know is how do I establish networking on a dial up connection?
My OS = WinME
Computer Brand = HP
Memory (Computer #1) = 511mb (this computer is hooked to phone line)
(Computer #2) = 127mb
Networking items purchased = 10/100 Lan Card, wireless PCI Adaptor and Wireless router.
Also since I have had the networking items installed I get an error message on computer #1 everytime I boot up.. and computer #1 is the one hooked to the phone line.
The error msg reads "The system detected a conflict for IP address (gives the IP addy) with the system having hardware address (gives the addy of the hardware). The interface has been disabled." That is the end of the error msg.. I need some major help here..
Thanks for any help anyone can give me...

To share a dialup wireless, you do not use a router. Return the router and the standard LAN card, and get one more wireless adapter identical to the one you have, put one in each PC. You set up the wireless adapters in the "ad hoc" (peer to peer) mode, then you use the WinME internet connection sharing/home networking wizard on the machine with the modem - make the floppy disk, and run it in the other machine.

Thank you for the information.. I have a couple more questions.. ok first it was stated to purchase another adaptor exactly like the one I bought. Ok, the manufacturer is D-Link and when I talked to a tech at the company they told me that their firmware is not set for dial up connection it is only for DSL or Cable. So based on that information if I purchase another adaptor and install it will I get the networking with dial-up connection?
Next, how do I find the "ad hoc" (peer to peer) mode to set the adaptors for that? I am knowledgeable about computers but am just learning the networking part of them.
Last, the floppy that I make do I have to run it on computer #2 all the time or just once ?
Thanks again for your help..

I'd cruise over to www.analogx.com and pick up their free proxy software. It's like ICS only easier to setup and use.

The utility that comes with the adaptor allows you to configure either "infrastructure" or "ad-hoc".

The firmware in the adapters has nothing to do with the type of connection you are sharing. When you set a pair of wireless adapters in "ad hoc" it's exactly like running a crossover cable between two wired adapters (or connecting more than 2 using a standard hub/switch) and any further configuration of your network is handled identically. I think the tech was referring to the router firmware - a router is used to share an external cable/DSL modem connection. *Some* routers have a serial port to share an external dialup modem, but I don't think D-Link offers one of those.
