My answer would just be an impression of the dial-up modems of our youth.

I've got two big modems and a dial tone.
I've got B Flat Tubas and a Sousaphone.
I've got two arms able and a vibraphone

I have an eerie feeling that I'll need these (fully functional) modems one day again

[1984] Database - Thames TV toyed with the idea of sending computer programs through the TV via audio, not unlike the tones that would become familiar via modems in the next decade. So get your cassette tape recorder ready to hit record.

The outer bands of the front are being picked up on radar this evening. This has been a much slower front than what modems depicted yesterday. The bulk of the precipitation still looks to be along the coast.

So that's where we got the sound for ol' school modems!

My BBS hardware shelf is finally ready to go! Very exciting. All fanless except for the NUC down below. The industrial PC with four serial ports is the BBS server connected to a pair of USR Courier modems. 8 port VoIP gateway and opnsense firewall below too.
More info to come.

A bit of a latecomer as modems didn't really take off in the UK during the 8-bit era. That was mainly because consumers could not connect their own equipment to the telephone network. That changed in 1981, yet most homes still had phones directly wired in, so modems were the exception not the norm.

I suppose slower modems probably did roar rather than the 56k screech. Lower frequency and all that. I'd never really thought about it before.
Now I wanna form a band with different speed modems and a couple of dot matrix printers😈

Way back my solution to these problems was we just put all these systems on to their own separate Network off production.
Dedicated DSL or cable modems with very nice firewalls, but completely isolated in every way you can from our production Network.
Worked good. 👍
Mostly hvac

If they didn't use the worst, cheapest modems and routers, they wouldn't need to reset them all the time to keep them working properly. 😑

My computer is completely free of Microsoft products, I already have a ham radio setup, and I even have a couple of modems stored on the shelf.

Kyiv built an EW “dome” against jet-powered Shaheds remotely controlled from Russia via onboard radio modems and mesh networks. Within weeks, hundreds of antennas and jamming systems were deployed across the city to disrupt drone control links, forcing Russia to pause and seek workarounds – 'Flash'

Once the omega came down from his high he was back to whiny, breathy modems moans.
"Fuck me. Please alphas! Knot me! Fuck me!"
And so they did. Starting slow to test the waters, one in, one out, adjust the angle a bit then go. Once they really started it was almost mechanical.

I sincerely miss the awful, horrid, eldritch screeches of dark delight modems used to make when encountering a kindred device over the wire.
I too will screech at my friends next time I see them.
