Yep, I am.  And there's no way I'm going back to that dialup thing.
Only time I use an old dialup modem now is for faxes (hylafax on
Linux of course) and when I'm flat out downloading and/or uploading
so the latency on the old ssh connection to work is a bit on high
side (so dial in to work, linux dialup server of course).

Dead simple to setup under Linux AND get a public, fully globally
routable, static IP on your Linux machine aswell.  Only "affordable"
"broadband" that comes close to the ease would be Tempest SSR, but
then you are surposed to use their router, Oops.
