Make connection with mug at Oxford? (4,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dial up

'make connection' is the definition.

'with mug at oxford?' is the wordplay.
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'mug' becomes 'dial' (I've seen this in other clues**).
'at oxford?' becomes 'up' (term meaning at university).
'dial' next to 'up' is 'DIAL UP'.

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
