Anyone still using dial up as a back-channel solution? Never implemented that myself, but seemed a cheap and easy way to get into your remote network in case of fuck up or outage. Banks used to do it. Anyone know?

Not support or a plug for them but, if you are in the USA and are curious… NetZero Dial-up service

It’s still a thing for some people…
