The modem is noisy when it dials and connects
When your modem tries to connect to another modem, it
begins handshaking. Handshaking is a digital "getting
acquainted" conversation between the two modems that
establishes connection speeds and communication protocols.
You may hear unusual handshaking sounds when the modems
first connect. If the handshaking sounds are too loud, you can
turn down the modem volume.
