Google for more assistance or use the excellent search feature on this site or check the knowledge base.

EDIT: What you have with BT is probably an X-Modem or similar, which is actually a router. If you had a PCI or USB modem would work the same way.
Not entirely true. You can always use ICS across a network, be it wired or wireless.

This negates the need for a router
