I used to live in the middle of bumfuck nowhere. And I believe we had dial up until 2010. I specifically remember our first Wi-Fi router being an 802.11G Belkin 54G router. And our first high-speed internet was 1.5mbps fiber. We upgraded from 1.5mbps to 3mbps and then to 7mbps by the time I moved out. Because that was my childhood home. I can also remember that at that time, I thought our school internet was super fast. And yet we were sharing a T1 line for the entire school. But it was still way faster than the dial up I had at home.
