Default Dial-up ISP's on the go

Anyone have suggestions for dial-up ISP's with NATIONWIDE service (that is NOT AOL or similar). I'm sick of paying $14 per day to get broadband in the hotels I stay in just to send and receive email.

I need nationwide access with LOCAL numbers, no forced banner ads, no (ISP) software required, etc....

I've seen ads for Monster ISP, and a few others although I have to admit I haven't heard of any of them. Who has the best deals (and reliability) for a nationwide dial-up product these days?


Thanks -

I like Earthlink. It comes with software, but you don't need to use it. Most of my traveling sales staff uses it for local access numbers. They suck for international numbers though, so as long as you stay in the US you would be fine.

AT&T Worldnet is also OK to use. Compuserve sucks, but they have decent worldwide access numbers.

Thanks for the suggestions, I used to have Worldnet and gave it up after they stopped offering international service, some "world net".

After looking around for national ISPs they all look pretty much the same for dial up (except the price). I decided to go with Monster-ISP.com. I have no idea if they are connected with Monster.com (the resume service), although the signup was really easy and the price was right ($117 year).
