A dialup router provides internet access to a computer network using only one modem and an ISP dialup internet account. It works by load sharing, a process by which Internet bandwidth is equally distributed among all active network users. It connects to each computer via the serial port.
A home dialup router has a limited number of serial ports for connecting to a small computer network. It is used with one dial-up account and one modem.

Firewall: Choose a dialup router with a built-in firewall to keep your network secure and the data protected from unauthorized access.
