Without having to use broadband n router? Can you still do it the old way with a modem n link software via ethernet??

Think I'll look into that 😊 if don't do that I'll link mobile phone on data connection to my computer use it that way thus not needing broadband anymore n data costs will give me more peace of mind@Paschar

If you can find a dial-up provider, have a modem, and have home phone service.

But good luck working with networks and webpages designed for broadband. There's more info in the header banner on SW to download there was on an entire webpage 20 years ago.

@seneca Broadband.

Not very good then are they if written only for broadband, very limiting in many ways unless other non broadband devices can connect to them 😒

@seneca Doesn't matter. Nobody's on dialup now. That's like saying cars aren't very good now since they're not designed to run on leaded gasoline.

I know Dialup was slow at times but was more secure n didn't need a so-called always on n connected 😄😄 connection. Todays broad band is a joke to what it used to be😠

There must be someone still providing dialup but it's not really practical anymore.
