Help Setting Up WRT54G using dial up

Need some help setting up a linksys WRT54G using a dial up account. This system was set up by one of the I.T. techs working for the same company and I acidentally reset the system. It had been working for over a year at my house in this configuration, and the tech quit and moved on. Linksys tech support says it can't work on dial up, but over a year of use says otherwise. I tie into the internet through my office computer dial up account with earthlink, and then run out of the computer through the LAN card into the WRT54g. From there I run one wired connection to my daughters room, and one wireless to the laptop. Need to know what setting to put back into the linksys to get it all working again. Thanks for any help.
 
Disable the dhcp server in the wrt54g.
Give the wrt54g a local address of 192.168.1.20
In your computer, go to network connections, right click on the modem connection and select properties.
go to the advanced tab.
If it is not already checked, check the box, "share this connection".
Now your computer is the dhcp server. If another computer is connected, it will get an address from your computer, and use that modem connection to get to the internet. This will include wireless and wired clients on the other three ports on the wrt54g.
