Dial-up access uses the same lines as your phone connection, except that the parties at the two ends are computers. This is a slow and cheap connection that uses a phone line to connect to a local server. Your computer dials a phone number that is provided by your ISP and connects to the server. Consequently, you cannot make phone calls while you are connected to the Internet. This is the oldest and slowest means of connecting; carrying out many functions using this mode can be very tedious and frustrating.

Network Manager

The Network Manager on Ubuntu is a simple to use and powerful utility to stay connected with wired and wireless adapters. It is located on the top menubar at the outer right corner. A left-click will reveal if your computer is already connected to a wired or wireless network. In case of a wireless network that is protected by a password, a dialogue will appear and ask for the password. The password can then be stored in your keyring, where it will automatically be used when needed. However, you may be asked for your keyring password if you have to log out.
