Unlike the majority of ISPs I'm pretty sure that AOL uses a proprietary WAN client as apposed to a standards based one (PPP / SLIP / PPPoA / PPPoE etc.) Your router will most likely support a selection of these standards based wide area protocols but AOL will not talk to them. If this is the case then I doubt that you'll get the router working directly with AOL.
All may not be lost as I think that The Nr Fairy's suggestion makes sense and is worth a try. Get your PC with the AOL client software to directly connect to AOL on start up (i'm presuming you're on broadband?) and then use some of the Microsoft internet connection sharing features to give other machine's in your network internet access. You could then use your wireless router as an DHCP Server, Ethernet switch and wireless access point by plugging your PC into one of the LAN ports of your wireless router.
