You can certainly plug in the lappy, instead of, not as well as the desktop. The modem has to be powered down (switched off) and back on again, allowed to settle, before switching on the PC.

Conflict withthe dialup settings is a bit more complex. You may need to create a second profile, or disable the dial up.
