    My grandparents still had dial-up in 2016.

    What made them decide to quit dial up?

    The company that provided service finally had a DSL option at their location. Though 2mbps/.5mbps wasn’t much of an upgrade over duplexed 56k in modern Internet terms especially since they were the furthest house from the node.

    I didn't get Internet until 2011 or so in the home. Then it was dial up for another few years. There was no other options where we lived since it was in the country.

    Edit: we did have a second line because landlines were so cheap
