I don't think my connection will be hijacked on a dialup by my dialup neighbors though can be sniffed.Besides it will require someone expensive gadgets to route the whole E1 line to his access server yet with a wireless he just needs a $15 wireless card to own the whole hotspot.When you dial-up to an ISP, how less vulnerable are you than when you connect to a hot-spot?
