Share dialup conn using WIFI router?

[mothermachine]

Hi folks,

At my lass' folks' place in Prague and it's 10 years behind here with the net.

Is the below possible?

They have ISDN dialup which is connected to a non-wifi router (a xyxel jobby) which their PC is connected to using ethernet.

Can I simply connect a WIFI router to one of the spare ethernet ports on their old router and share the dialup connection, then access the net using a wifi device such as iphone?

Various guides on the net tell me this should work, even if it would be slow.

Any tips or confirmation? Anything funky I might have to do with the wifi router or the old non-wifi router to get it to work?

Cheers,

will work fine, you will probably need to disable DHCP on the wireless router though

awesome thanks mate. reckon a simple cheap belkin/netgear would do the job? im thinking that simple is best in this case.

cheers,
