From their page:
Use what you want when you want!
$1 per month Dial Up Internet - Unlimited data

Critical Information Summary: http://c.dodo.com/pdfs/plansummary/6080_$1_Dial-up_Plan.pdf

A good deal cheaper than iprimus $9.95 (http://www.iprimus.com.au/products/dialup/), Internode $10 (http://www.internode.on.net/residential/broadband/product_fe…), Earthlink $9.95 (http://www.earthlink.net/dialup/), Lizzy $8.90 (http://lizzy.com.au/dialup/)

Watch out for these things as the surcharges can be crazy:
- Make sure you opt for electronic invoice, otherwise hard copy costs $2.20 per statement. that's a surcharge of 220% (!)
- Pay by direct debit from credit card, otherwise $1.90 processing fee applies if debited from bank account. Although not as bad, it still is a surcharge of 190% (!)

    I don't have a home phone, maybe I can hook it up to my mobile plan on .20c per minute :)

    Is there any fine print saying your speed will be reduced till next billing period if you have excessive usage ?

  • malouphix on 05/11/2015 - 09:22

    Cheaper than 4G!
    Bargain!

    How do I connect a modem ( with a serial port and phone in/out port) to my Dual-Band Wireless-AC1750 Gigabit Router ??

  • golferpat on 05/11/2015 - 09:44

    Assuming no one is using dial up at the moment, otherwise the deal would be expired by the time the page loads

  • creeps_bay on 05/11/2015 - 09:58

    Wouldn't it be great to use dial up internet on Skype unlimited calls - wish there was hack :)

  • R3XNebular on 05/11/2015 - 10:00

    Tempted! Wonder if this is sufficient for a 4 camera set up for our business. Just want to be able to monitor the store.

    It is worth it just for the old dial up sound

    If my math is right AND you got the theoretical 56kb/s AND you used that non stop you would get 1.766016tb of data in a year. Amazing ;),

    • iFetch on 05/11/2015 - 15:55

      Actually I think it's…
      56kbps = 56 kilobits per second = 56/8 kilobytes per second = 7 KB per sec
      = 420 KB / minute
      = 25200 KB / hour
      = 604800 KB / day
      = 220903200 KB / year (365.25 days per year average)
      = 215725.78125 MB / year (divide by 1024)
      = 210.6697082519531 GB / year
      = 0.205732136964798 TB / year

      And the above is at theoretical speeds which I highly doubt will be possible.

      • BillyZ93 on 05/11/2015 - 17:44

        Well you wouldn't count the quarter day, you would count the extra day on a leap year. Other than that you are correct and so am I.

        • Tiggrrrrr on 05/11/2015 - 21:08

          I suspect the confusion was around the use of terabits (tb).

          Most people would have converted to terabytes (TB)

    Actually, if anyone wants a USB dial-up modem let me know. I'm pretty sure I kept at least one…

  • edy4eva on 19/11/2015 - 01:08

    Soft session of 4 hours apply which requires redialling. Anyone old enough to remember the days of FreeNet in 1999/2000? Ah the good old days!

  • strikerzebra on 02/12/2015 - 09:49
