I currently have a desktop and just bought a laptop. I can not get DSL/cable line into house. Therefore, I use dial up. I am trying to gain wireless access with my laptop. Is that possible? If yes, how do I do that? Are there any products out there and which are the best/most affordable. Thanks so much for your help.

yes it is - you'll need to either
a. Buy a router OR
b. Use ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) on your desktop

Check your Windows help file for more info on ICS / instructions on how to set it up.
ICS is available from Windows 98 SE onwards. <marc>[ul]help us help![li]please provide feedback on what works / doesn't[/li][li]not sure where to start? click here: faq581-3339[/li][/sup][/ul][/sup]
