What is "dialup"

Usage examples of "dialup".

Armed with a dialup, PO called Acid back on his real number and casually proclaimed victory.

But if they don't have local dialups, you can still access a shell account located *anywhere* in the world by setting up a PPP connection with your local dialup ISP, and then accessing your shell account using a telnet program on your home computer.

Instead of a PPP connection we will do a simple phone dialup, the same sort of connection you use to get on most computer bulletin board systems (BBS).

Enter the name of your local dialup, then in the next dialog box enter the phone dialup number of your ISP.
