There is a thread on SI dedicated to Funphone.

Subject 26666

Most people do access the internet via modems, however with the advent of cable modems and DSL there are other options.

The telecommunications network is truly the most reliable system out there. Have you ever seen a local C.O. (Central Office), they are constructed to withstand earthquakes, tornados, hurricanes, nuclear attacks (I forget what the exact distance specification is though, obviously not a direct hit) and guess what...those 5ESS and 4ESS and DMS switches were the first on the block to be Y2K compliant. As far as the internet equipment (routers and such), there has been a massive program in the industry to ensure that everyone is compliant. If nothing else works, the telecommunications network will.
