dial up internet services

(Redirected from Dial-up)

Dial-up access is a form of Internet access through which the client uses a modem connected to a computer and a telephone line to dial into an Internet service provider's (ISP) node to establish a modem-to-modem link, which is then routed to the Internet.

Until recently it was the cheapest method of internet access, but is slowly losing that distinction.
