Solution

The correct option is B Dialup

Dialup method is used to connect a remote computer.

Dial-up Internet access is a form of Internet access that uses the facilities of the public switched telephone network (PSTN) to establish a connection to an Internet service provider (ISP) by dialing a telephone number on a conventional telephone line.

Remote access is the ability to communicate with a computer or network that is located some distance away over a dial-up connection. ... Virtual private network (VPN) protocols are usually used to secure these private connections. Dial-up remote access is still used today as a back-up to broadband connections.

According to a Pew survey from last August, 3% of Americans still use dial-up internet at home. That means that AOL actually only has a small chunk of the dial-up internet -- three percent of Americans translates to around 9 million people. It's easy to caricature dial-up users (they're old! they're forgetful!)
