The company was known for making easy-to-use products with an emphasis on personality, so it's funny how little fanfare the shutdown notice came with. In a 100-word blog posted over the weekend, AOL simply said that its dial-up service will "no longer be available in AOL plans" starting on Sept. 30, 2025. Also joining dial-up in the trash bin are the AOL Dialer software you'd actually use to connect, as well as the AOL Shield browser, a stripped-down version of the company's current, Chrome-like AOL Shield Pro browser, intended for older operating systems and slower connections.
Still, there is hope for anyone still clinging to a screeching phone modem for their internet connection. Services like Netzero and Juno still offer dial-up plans in certain zip codes, and Netzero will actually connect you for free if you use fewer than 10 hours a month.

Even better, the classic AOL experience isn't going anywhere. While AOL is ending dial-up service, it will keep offering its AOL Desktop Gold plan, which in addition to including tools to protect you from keyloggers and phishing attempts, also gives you access to the classic AOL browser, as opposed to the more Chrome-ified Shield Pro. It even has the "You've got mail" notification.
