You would still have to dial up every time you want

moment to dial up, but I find it changes my web browsing habits anyway.
Unless you do dedicated-over-dial, i.e., a dedicated phone line for
the modem, always on, redial on hangup, and route a static IP block
down the pipe. That's what I do.
I wonder what the phone company would do if a local
call lasted more
than a few hours... (number of days..)
Just checked syslog, the last time my router redialed was on Aug 24.
So the call that's in progress right now has lasted 3 weeks so far.
