I have a vague memory of loading some packet driver, dialing in with
kermit, setting up IP addresses somehow with slip and then it was
possible to use NCSA Telnet which handily also included an FTP
server. So compared to just dialing in for a terminal session, I could
chat on IRC while sending or receiving files with FTP.

This was in 1991 with a 2400 bps modem.
