Ok, but that's still not "dial up". All modems have to connect in some manner, and DSL connects by connecting to a specific number. If you have a router, it acts exactly as a cable modem and is always on, immediately connected as soon as your Desktop loads. With a router you only have to "configure" it one time. -Clint

But I had to configure it to dial out with a 2 digit phone number... I have to click on a DSL link on my desktop and have it connect to the internet... It's not like when I had cable and it was automatically connected... So I still equate DSL as a type of dial-up...
