To communicate over a phone line, your computer needs a modem
The device you are referring to is called a Modem.
I think the device you're thinking of is a modem. A modem allows a computer to communicate over a phone line.
MODEM (Modulator - Demodulator) allows communication between computers.Generally Modem connects to ISP over analog telephone line and further ISP connects to Computers over Internet.

Dial up is 56kb; DSL is about 10mbs.
Do you mean Modem if so... Modem, short for modulator-demodulator is an electronic device that converts a computer's digital signals into specific frequencies to travel over telephone or cable television lines. At the destination, the receiving modem demodulates the frequencies back into digital data. Computers use modems to communicate with one another over a network.
modem means modulator demodulator. it converts digital signal to analog signal. it is use to transmit computer signal (digital signal) over the telephone line to communicate to other computers. modem converts the computer digital signal into frequency (analog signal) so that it can transmit over the telephone line and at the receiving end the modem converts the analog signal back to digital for the receiving computer to understand it.
A modem enables computers to communicate over lines of information whether it be telephone, RS 232, USB, Cable, satellite, or fiber optics. Although the technology for each one is different, they all essentially do the same thing.
The modem on your computer must connect to your Internet Service Provider's server over a land telephone line. You connect the computer's modem to a telephone jack as you would a telephone.
A GSM Modem is a modem that operates over a subscription like a mobile phone. One can purchase a GSM Modem from eBay, Walmart, Amazon, and Robot Shop.
A modem (stands for modulator-demodulator) is a device that allows a computer to use a telephone line to communicate with other computers. The fastest modem is 56kbs (56,000 bytes per second). This is a limitation of the phone lines, not of hardware. Modems are rarely used because cable or DSL have replaced them because of speed.
Dennis Hayes and Dale Heatherington invented the modem in 1977 while they were at Stanford University. They developed the first commercially successful modem, which allowed computers to communicate over telephone lines by converting digital data into analog signals and vice versa. Their invention laid the foundation for modern internet connectivity, enabling a wide range of digital communication.
