Dialup

Dialup is a service that allows internet through a telephone line. Connect one end of the telephone line to the modem of your computer and the other end into your telephone jack. You couldn't use the phone and go online at the same time. This was basically how you used the internet before wifi. Or if you were me, wifi wasn't available where you lived so you used dialup..

Me: Hey Bob. Wanna hear something cool?
Bob: Yeah?
Me: I used to use dialup.
Bob: Holy shit you're old.
