We did have an "AOL" style dial-up service back in the 90's, good times indeed! 😊
-
Awesome vid! Sad to think that today’s generation may not know what this sound is. Brings back lots of nostalgic memories!
-
I remember it, the noise, the waiting, the inability to use the phone at the same time, and the beginnings of Internet excitement!
-
I got really good at hearing the "fallback" of the modem back in the day. Just by the tones, I could tell that I wasn't getting my 56K connection. lol
-
Ah, so many memories associated with that sound. I'd quite forgotten the Bong Bong phase of the negotiation.
-
Ah been a loooong time since I last heard that USR "bong bong" 56K connect sequence. My second favorite after the wild and rare V.Fc connect tones.

The World wants to Accomplish Net Zero by 2050.......little did the government know... We allready have NetZero at home.

Cool vid 😊

Amazing that you still have a computer that runs windows 98 with a landline telephone.
-
Question: was the modem plugged into an old-fashioned Bell copper phone line? (I would presume, but have not at all tested, that any of the fiber/cable/etc more-or-less-IP-based phone lines would not be happy with a dial-up modem)

Downloading Nvidia Driver. 3 years, 27 weeks, 4 days remaining.........

Get the f out.. lol no way!!
-
Fun Fact: dial up is still an option on Windows 11.
-
It is use for model Network or Phone telecom!! 🤔
-
Don't you need an old fashioned POTS line to use dial-up?
-
do long distance charges apply? :)
