Need help with Airport + ADSL

Hi all,
I need some help with Airport.

I have an iBook and the main home computer is an iMac G4. Both of these are running Jaguar.

We're just about to get ADSL to replace our aging dial-up Internet connection.

My dilemma is, that when we activate the ADSL etc, I'll lose my dial-up link for the iBook, as the ADSL modem will be attached to the iMac.

Is there ANY way (without having to buy an Airport base station) that I can connect to the Internet from my iBook via the iMac, using Airport?

I hope that makes sense.
Please help me.
 
I'm not positive about this, but as far as I know 10.2 does support having a software basestation, so your G4 can act as the basestation. I'll do some looking but hopefully someone else can chime in with their thoughts.
 
I'm pretty sure that 10.2 doesn't support software basestation. I know that 10.1 does not. If someone knows of a hack to get it to work in 10.2, share the wealth! ;)

Tim
