Unable to access the Internet

My father - aged 88 - has lost access to the internet.

Unfortuntely he is 200 miles away from me and so I am unable to access his PC - and in anycase I am basically computer illiterate!!

I plan to visit him in the next couple of weeks and would appreciate any suggestion as to how to get him (the computer f course) back on line as I obviously will not be able to post this request when I am there.

All that I know is that he is running on Windows XP and runs on a dial up (no such luxury of broadband where he lives) through Freeserve.

My apologies for such a vague request but would appreciate any help and suggestions.

Many thanks in advance.
