I remember using it to download whole (small) websites on dialup and then to read offline.

In Wikipedia's case, they'd prefer you download a dump or use an app specifically designed to read Wikipedia offline. Rendering all that PHP is (or at least at one point was) expensive.

I, somewhat fancifully, keep two flashdrives with a wikipedia data dump on them "just in case"

I didn't know they still sell TeleportPro!
