    Default Dial-Up, two computers, one phone line

    Is it at all possible to setup two computers on a network using a router and them sharing an internet connection or one computer hosting the internet. Would I need a certain type of network cable? A certain type of router? A certain type of modem? Or does this even work with dial-up?

    The install disk is XP SP1. Once it is installed they will be updated completely.

    What operating system is on them now, are you going to perform a clean install of XP?
