connect the telephone line to the laptop, and set up the applying you employ (AOL, netZero, etc...). Then verify in alongside with your exhibit screen call. in case you mean you have chose the two computers to have internet at as quickly as, you may desire to no longer share dial-up. Its rather no longer sensible in any respect - dial-up is to sluggish to split between 2 computers, and theres a solid hazard you will merely get a connection timed out blunders while the bandwidth gets overloaded.

The software ICS in Windows shipps with Windows itself, so you have it, TCP/IP networking is also there, configure it according to what a typical home network uses (becareful it is not related and should not touch the dialup settings)
Get the hardware first: 2 network cards, wires, and since routers are cheap nowadays, get 1 and disable its broadband outgoing port and anything you see in it. The thought of cross-wiring is more straight-forward, but if the local custom shop is blackhanding your wallet ditch that thought and go routers alternative.

A network cable between the two computers. Make sure it's a crossover type.
