I might be wrong but ACID needs constant internet, if Ethernet gets unplugged, only a reboot will get it back on the Internet. DIAL supports hot plugging in the Internet, swapping it out with another network etc.

At least on my Dell old tower PC, an outage of Ethernet required me to reboot the machine to get internet to work again. Maybe it was a hardware problem something specefic to my computer. I never tested it on DIAL before I switched to the PI for AllStar

I’m sure this has been discussed before, but I was unable to find on Google search
a simple list of features that Dial will get me over my current Acid setup. Can I get
an opinion of whether it’s advantageous to migrate to Dial?
