Not sure exactly what you're talking about, but a home phoneline NIC is just that, a NIC. You don't "dial up" on those. What equipment do you have?

A home phoneline NIC doesn't hook you up to the internet per se. A dial up modem or a cable/DSL modem does, and usually connects to your PC via an Ethernet NIC. A home phoneline NIC (usually HomePNA) allows sharing between computers (whether it'd be for file sharing or for internet sharing, etc.).

Your phoneline is connected to your NIC seperate from the modem.
