You can to write some backend script in PHP. I precede that your ISP allow 
to run PHP pages. This script should to have at least two functions.
First function would be for downloading data from server to local Access 
database in some acceptable form, eg. data dump, XML or CSV.
Second function would be for data uploading to server analogous to previous 
function.
I know, it is not ideal, but for dialup users this should be a solution.
