I don't think you can, and why would youi want to? Dialup is slow now as it is. Why make it slower?

None that I've seen, for normal dial-up. One could build it, sure, or maybe find a REAL old one. Generally speaking, I think you're out of luck. An old one wouldn't have wireless capability. You could get a DSL modem/router or combination, of course, if you had DSL.

I'd imagine you could make one out of a desktop computer and a wireless card. Have the desktop computer connect to the net, and set it up as either an DHCP server, or an ad-hoc network with the network(modem) connection shared, but that would require the computer be on, and either know how to dial the modem on demand, or that it be continously on.
