Sharing a dial-up using 802.11g router?

Question

I was wondering if it was possible to easily share a dial-up connection using an Netgear 802.11g router (WGR614) meant for cable/DSL? I have two Windows XP boxes and one Windows 2000 box that I would like to use for very basic internet service. The idea is that when one of the boxes connects to the internet, the other ones on the LAN network will also have a connection. I know that it is possible to use internet connection sharing in Windows to shrae my dial-up connection. However, other systems on the LAN network do not see the proper gateway necessary to connect to my dial-up ISP. The gateway they do see is the gateway of the router which is something like 192.168.1.1. The problem is getting the computers on the LAN to see the one system that is sharing the internet connection. Is there a way to make this easier?

In order to do this, you will need to put the router into Access Point Mode and disable dhcp on the router. Steve
