Are you paying for the dial up service? If not, gosh, you seem to be out of luck.

(Fresh out of college while the dot-com crash was still in effect, I briefly took a job for a local phone company. Their primary income was from people who were still paying 1996-ish prices for T1 lines, of hundreds and hundreds a month. Meanwhile I would go home to my cable modem which was about 4 times faster for ~$50/month. Now, techically, the T1s were dedicated bandwidth and of course my cable modem was shared, but it was still a terrible deal for them. And they weren't even getting subsidized computers out of it!)
