Wireless connections require two parts - a computer with a wireless
card/internal wireless hardware and a broadcast (for lack of a better word)
station. Looks like you have the first part, but not the "station".

If you are on only dial-up connection, you never will be able to use a
wireless connection with it as dial-up is strictly telephone line use. You
will need to subscribe to either a DSL or other broadband connection type to
get wireless at home. You will however, be able to use your wireless
capability at hotels and other places that offer either metered ($) or free
wireless internet connections. 

Just be sure that you read up some more on wireless security before you jump
in as a wireless connection can be a way for viruses, spyware, malware, and
hackers to break into your system. See
http://www.pdxpc.net/Articles.html#Security for some basic info on this.
