You required a modem, also known as a modulator or demodulator. It transformed audio into digital signals and back, enabling data transfer over phone lines. Its use declined once coax cables became widespread, though fax lines remain operational today.
The volume for the modem speaker could be changed using an AT command or a physical dial on external modems. Many users turned off the speaker once the connection was made. While working for a small ISP, the owner preferred all modems to run at full power (around 30 units). He joked that it was "The sound of making money."
