Can I use dial-up to take online classes?
It is recommended that you use high speed Internet such as DSL or RoadRunner, but dial-up will still usually work. Note that some multimedia functions will take longer to load on dial-up such as video or long audio lectures, or might not work at all. Because so many eLearning courses involve videos and large file transfers, it would be best if you built the cost of high speed internet access into your education budget.
