Q1 - You can use dialup, but in a different way. One
computer must dialup through a regular phone modem, and
be on whenever you want the other computer to go online.
Turn on ICS on that computer. Then wire the Modem Port of
the router to the Ethernet port of the computer. Then set
the other computer(s) to access the router wired or
wirelessly. (If you search the newsgroups you can find
more details on how to set it up).
Q2 - Depends on how both connections are established,
i.e. if both connect to the ISP in the same manner or
not. Otherwise, you'll have to reconfigure the connection
settings to the ISP on the router (but not the wireless
interface).
