Laptop connected to Internet via Public Payphone **HOW??**

Has anyone seen the movie "Hackers 2 Takedown", the star of the movie connects to the internet through a payphone. Is this for real? if it can be done I would like to know (for educational purposes).

Most payphones in airports have data jacks just for this purpose.

Or, you could try to find an acoustic coupler modem.

Sure it is, some payphones have data ports, AKA plug your modem in here ports hehehe. Only dialup tho, youll see them at airports mostly.
