I have dial-up at home and require a phone jack thingy (...

I have dial-up at home and require a phone jack thingy (what is it called) and I am looking at the Toshiba Satellite L755-06N web ID: 10171893 for $599.97 - does it have one and if not can it be installed? Thank you for your time and effort on this.

Re: I have dial-up at home and require a phone jack thingy (...

As dialup internet has been mostly phased out by broadband, satellite, and 3G connections, a dialup modem no longer comes standard on computer towers and laptops. However, a USB dialup modem can be added to any computer to give it dialup functionality.

 

Hope that helps!
