Can it be done?
My iBook has got a wireless AirPort connection, but can I share it with the modem port on the notebook?
I'm not quite sure where I'd go from there, but I want to try and hook my Dreamcast up through it as it only has dial-up.
Any ideas, please?

No, it´s not.
Just think of all the software that sometimes acts as a server on your machine.
Crunch: I know there is a pretty good tutorial on how to do this on windows
(http://www.kinox.org/articles/windc.html), and I´m pretty sure it works on the Mac, too.
About the only problem is that the graphical interface doesn´t seem to allow this, but since it´s a BSD System, I´m pretty sure you can fiddle with the command line and get what you want.

yeah you're right!
Getting the Dreamcast to dial-up the iBook should be no problem, as there are some tutorials on how to do it in Windows, so it should be fine.
Just need to get past this first hurdle...
