He said it was a "dial-up ADSL broadband modem"... I think it's
something like an Alcatel, not a dial-up in the traditional sense (ie.
not 56k PSTN).
If you recall on Windows alcatel-type modems appear as "dial up
networking connections", though they don't actually dial at all...

It's nice to see everyone playing nicely again.
And it's at times like this that I realise just how much communication
is lost in a text-only medium.

Ferran,
If I can get to my wife's house I might have a wireless router I can
send you, if you draw a blank. Have a couple in the garage.
But it might take a week or two.

I would really recommend a router, a wired one is cheap, and will give
a better and more stable connection that the modem. There appears to
be some info here
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsbAdslModem/EciAdsl but it is quite
old. I know my sagem one didn't work at all when I tried it.

I am afraid that trying to get things like Alcatel Speedtouch modems

It doesn't actually.
It's just that Windows displays it as a Dial Up Networking Connection.
Doesn't dial up at all

hi everyone
just wondered if you would be able to help me out a bit. I've promised
to help a friend with her new ubuntu machine, but her family use dial up

Thanks Daniel.
Unfortunately I have two unrelated issues:

Hi Everyone,
I'm really new to the Ubuntu scene; got involved about 6 months ago.
Everything has been working fine until a recent update session. An
incomplete update was signalled (I 'd just installed ClamTk and PiTiVi a
day or so earlier. At first the screen dropped into 'basic' low-res
mode.

Where did you see that and how are you trying to install WUBI? (I have
the same setup and didn't see any message about this at all)
