American Broadband Nebraska -- High-Speed Internet

Dial-up Internet

Dial-up Internet access is a type of Internet connectivity that operates through a standard telephone line. By running the telephone line to a modem device in the personal computer, and configuring the computer to dial a specific phone number, the computer is granted Internet access.

Dial-up service is the least expensive but also the slowest type of Internet access. Due to the limited bandwidth - the ability for the modem to send and receive data - dial-up service can take up to five minutes to download just one megabyte of data.

Faster Internet options include, most commonly, cable and DSL (Digital Subscriber Line or Dedicated Service Line). DSL uses your standard telephone line for fast Internet access, but differs from dial-up in that DSL uses a digital frequency. Dial-up transmits data across the telephone line using the standard analog frequency, making it impossible to use your telephone while online.
