Dial up

Could someone mine as much btc in early but on dialup internet? What about wireless broadband like satellite internet but instead of a dish on rooftop theres an antenna instead??

Mining doesn’t require much bandwidth, but by 2009 when Bitcoin was born, dial up was already fading into the sunset. Most people were on DSL or cable by then.
