I just signed up for an account with macconnect.com, so far
I'm happy.

username, password, DNS servers, dial-up number

pretty basic stuff, no extra software needed.

also, you have your choice of UUnet, Cable&Wireless, or PSINet
dial-up networks (just one at a time as I found out on Saturday).
If they added Focal, they'd have most of the dial-up numbers
possible in the US. 

besides, you can tell them you're using MacOS X's ancestor.

The other possibility is to find a good local ISP which provides
national dial-up numbers. My former ISP slip.net used to do this.
