I have to ask: Since dial-up is about $10-$20, and low-end broadband is $25-$30 per month, can't you just not eat out once a month and get broadband instead? Maybe you're getting a super cheap $5 dial-up plan or something. Otherwise the $10 a month for broadband is totally worth it, even the "slow" broadband which is still 25 times faster than dial-up and doesn't take up the phone lines.
Are there any wi-fi hotspots near you that you could get Internet from?
