I think you misunderstood me lol. But what is your overall objective? Because I can tell you some other helpful options. And no it would not work whatsoever if you were to hook it up to the phone line, unless you have dial-up from your provider in which no video game nowadays can handle the speed of dial-up lol. It's way too slow. Anyways, like I said what is your overall objective? What are you trying to accomplish?
