GAC-300
802.11n
WiFi Dialup Router- Share Dialup via WiFi/LAN
Note: WiFi Dial Up routers cannot
increase the speed of the dial up connection !
5v/1A USB DC Adapter not included- Available in most stores
Not Compatible with AOL, NetZero
and Juno !
The GAC-300 makes a dialup connection to the dial up Internet Service
Provider
(ISP) of your choice. It is pre-programmed with a free dial up
ISP
long-distance phone number so that the router can be tested before programming your ISP's local access phone number. (
long
distance phone charges may apply, no guarantee is made of free ISP
service availability or performance).
The GAC-300 supports the popular
802.11n
WiFi standard which provides extended
range and coverage. The GAC-252 connects via its
USB
port to a V.92-standard 56K USB dial up modem
(included
with the unit) to provide the maximum data
rate your phoneline can support (usually 40-50 kbps for clean lines and
lower for noisy lines).
The GAC-300 is compatible with all WiFi devices including PCs running
all versions of Windows (Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows
2000, etc.), all flavors of Mac OS, and all distributions
of Linux. Other compatible devices include all WiFi
smartphones (iPhone, Blackberry, and Android mobiles), tablets
(Kindle, Nook, Android, iPad, etc.) and all
WiFi gaming devices like the Nintendo DS. Multiple users can
share the dial up connection using either WiFI and/or the LAN port
on the router. For machine to machine applications the GAC-252
incorporates a schedule
based dial out feature. It can be configured to dial out at various
times of the day or week for a configurable period of time.
By default the unit opens a dial up connection upon power-up. It
can also be configured for demand-based dialing where the dial up
connection is only opened when there is traffic for the Internet.
Additional flexibility is provided with the
Schedule
feature which allows the dial up session to be started at a particular
time or on a particular cycle. A simple API for remotely starting,
stopping and checking status is also available which allows external
software programs to interact with the router.
The GAC-352 is compatible with dial up ISPs who do not require
specialized
PC/MAC software for dial up access and will definitely work
for you if you use
standard Windows or Mac dial up network connections to make your dial
up
ISP connection today. Most ISPs are compatible with the GAC-252. On the
other hand,
Netzero,
Juno and AOL are some of the known ISPs
that
require
special software and are
incompatible with
the GAC-252.

The GAC-300 is still in production. Recently, demand has decreased since broadband and 4G wireless is more pervasive and 4G monthly plans from resellers have fallen
The Dell modem that we ship has the same chipset as the USR 5637 so the better performance may be due to a better board design.
Just checking in to see if there were any new products. My GAC-300 is working great for a year now, the only thing i changed was the modem. The one shipped with the unit worked fine, but I decided to go with a usr 5637 modem, just to eke out every little bit of performance i could from dialup. The usr modem did improve data fluxations, made loading pages and downloading smoother. Anyway great product, I'm still recommending it.

Thanks for the review Matt. Good to know that the product is working for you. As a clarification - long distance is NOT REQUIRED for initial setup. It is only there as a convenience if you want to test the unit when you first receive it. You can always configure your ISP's local access number and user name/password when you first receive the unit.
Purchased 5/17. Use copper.net. Dual boot win 10 (used tron to clean up, works much better on dial-up),and xubuntu 16.04 LTS. Use opera browser on both, as it has speed dial. That helps a lot. Router is a great product, I'd recommend it to anybody stuck on dial-up. The only problem I had setting it up,I needed long distance for the initial setup, which I had to purchase for the month. I've long since dropped that, and only use local calling. Again great product, does exactly what it says it will do. Makes setting up modern computers so much easier as most (all?) computers no longer have phone jack for dial-up.
Dial up connections are very slow and useful only for retrieving email, sending messages, and web-surfing on simple sites. Amazon TV/Apple TV and other such devices require a high speed broadband connection. Would not recommend the GAC-252 for this.
I want to buy this as I have dial up only and many device like iPads,Amazon tv Apple TV cameras so on and so on,will this work for me?i will have frontier as my phone service and was thinking of using EarthLink
The GAC-252 is back in stock however very limited quantity so place your orders ASAP. We will have more stock after thanksgiving.
will this ever be in stock? A lot of people still have dial up as high speed internet is unavailable in 2-4% of North America.
AOL access requires special client software for a PC or Mac. So it can't be supported on the GAC
Do you offer or know of a wifi router that can use aol? I don't know why aol won't work with your GAC-252. but I'm confident you know that it will not. Is there a difference in the signal, a disconnect problem or more complicated than that?
By the way, it was not clear what to do in the box below - I figured out but a label would be helpful

I want to apologize for a nasty post on May 7, 2014. Great Arbor refunded my purchase price for the GAC-252, which I was unable to use. It turns out as of as late as today, I finally was able to acquire reliable internet connection. Turns out the phone company had me connected to a bad line, and finally repaired it today. It took 5 visits from them to finally get this resolved! I think that the GAC-252 was likely a good unit, but could not be used under those conditions. Great Arbor refunded me, and I thank them for the professionalism through the frustrating weeks we both tried to resolve the situation. Thanks again GAC!
