But despite becoming so familiar, it remained a mystery for most of us. What do these sounds mean? [HTML5 audio: In-line recording of the beginning of a telephone call made by a modem.] (The audio was recorded by [10]William Termini on his iMac G3.) As many already know, what you're hearing is often called a handshake, the start of a telephone conversation between two modems. The modems are trying to find a common language and determine the weaknesses of the telephone channel originally meant for human speech. Below is a spectrogram of the handshake audio. I've labeled some signals according to which party transmitted them, and also put a concise explanation below. [11][Image: A large infographic detailing the phases of the dialup handshake, centered on a time-frequency-power representation (spectrogram).] (You can order this poster as a high-res print via [12]Redbubble!) Hello, is this a modem? The first thing we hear in this example is a dial tone, the same tone you would hear when picking up your landline phone. The modem now knows it's connected to a phone line and can dial a number. The number is signaled to the network using Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency signaling, or DTMF, the same sounds a telephone makes when dialing a number. The remote modem answers with a distinct tone that our calling modem can recognize. They then exchange short bursts of binary data to assess what kind of protocol is appropriate. This is called a V.8 bis transaction. Suppressing echoes Now the modems must address the problem of echo suppression. When humans talk, only one of them is usually talking while the other one listens. The telephone network exploits this fact and temporarily silences the return channel to suppress any confusing echoes of the talker's own voice. Modems don't like this at all, as they can very well talk at the same time (it's called full-duplex). The answering modem now puts on a special answer tone that will disable any echo suppression circuits on the line. The tone also has periodic "snaps" (180° phase transitions) that aim to disable yet another type of circuit called echo canceller. Finding a suitable modulation Now the modems will list their supported modulation modes and try to find one that both know. They also probe the line with test tones to see how it responds to tones of different frequencies, and how much it attenuates the signal. They exchange their test results and decide a speed that is suitable for the line. Enough small talk! After this, the modems will go to scrambled data. They put their data through a special scrambling formula before transmission to make its power distribution more even and to make sure there are no patterns that are suboptimal for transfer. They listen to each other sending a series of binary 1's and adjust their equalizers to optimally shape the incoming signal. Soon after this, the modem speaker will go silent and data can be put through the connection. But why? Why was it audible? Why not, one could ask. Back in the days, telephone lines were used for audio. The first modems even used the telephone receiver like humans do, by [13]talking into the mouthpiece, until newer modems were developed that could directly connect into the phone line. Even then, the idea of not hearing what's happening on a phone line you're calling on was quite new, and modems would default to exposing the user to the handshake audio. And in case you accidentally called a human, you would still have time to pick up the telephone and explain the situation. All you had to do to silence the handshake was to send the command ATM0 down the serial line before dialing. Poster Update 02/2013: Due to numerous requests, I made this into a 42-megapixel poster that [14]Redbubble is selling. A few dollars per poster is directed to the nerd who made this.

Anonymous[27]04 February, 2013 12:52 It's so odd... I used to hate this sound when I got my first PC. I used to try and find ways to either turn it down or turn it off altogether... of course, you couldn't. Not really. But as time went on, I got used to it. Kind of like when you sign on to your computer and the OS greets you with a noise or a song. It was like the Pavlov's Dogs, and I got used to listening for those sounds. You could actually tell if your connection was going to be good or bad (ie, none at all) by the way the sound was modulating. That sound, to me, is like the sound of an old school typewriter. It's primitive, it's annoying, but I do so miss that kind of feed-back in the here and now! Classic stuff. [28]Delete Replies Reply 4. [29]Unknown[30]05 June, 2016 14:30 Its quite fun, because the mother of our now (and one not longer a teenager) could hear from the handshake tones who was dialing in. It was a serious distinct handshake. And since I used a USR Courier v.everything and most dialers used Supra and other modems, it was quite easy to hear who connected. The (in the last days of dial up) USR Sportster 14400 could easily be upgraded to 28800bps. But it took the black Sportster to cope to "56k". (v.fast and k56flex). Also the USR Courier V.everything had a set of unpublished commands to measure the line quality. Found them when doing a backup. ATYnn is undocumented. Spectral analysis of line quality.

My first modem use was in 1979 with 300 Bps and then in 1981 with 1200 Bps. In the late 1980s I used a 2400 Bps modem for the first time and loved it. The move to actual Kbps speeds and then digital modems, and then routers were all just normal parts of an evolving network. But I realized I missed the modems' sounds and control/handshake sequences, which allowed an engineer to more closely follow and understand the data transmission process. We've coma a long way, and we should capture this kind of thing to remind us of the journey. Again, immense thanks. Reply[123]Delete Replies 1.

[163]quantumdude[164]13 October, 2013 18:58 I think there's a few issues with the labelling (as far as which is sent by the calling modem and which by the answering modem). In the V.8bis transaction CL is sent from the answering modem, NOT the calling modem (so the MS and ACK(1) packets are sent by the other modem as well). Also, it seems as if the phase 2 labelling was referenced from the V.34 standard (which V.90/92 is based on). However, in V.90, these "roles" are often reversed (based on which modem is analog and which is digital) - this can be verified as to which wide-spectrum probing signal is "sharper" (because it's the one being sent by the calling modem). Don't get me wrong, I love this post - it's inspired me to learn all the different V-series standards and try to build my own dialup modem! Reply[165]Delete Replies 1.

I've heard of people hating this sound, but it's always been beautiful to me. I grew up with simple 300 baud initially, just simple FSK. To hear things progress, and as better/more efficient modulations came out as time went on, this was literally music to my ears. I always had my modem audio on for the handshake. The better modems even had a volume slider. For the WHY portion, you're probably not going far enough in what you said. Since many times, when calling BBSs and services (like Compuserve, Delphi, or Prodigy), you were often calling blindly. You got the number somewhere, but mistakes were common, BBS numbers were mixed with fax numbers, and voice numbers. I used to hear voices or fax tones (which are easily distinguishable from straight-modems) and you'd know something went wrong. Otherwise, you're just waiting about 30-45 seconds for a "Connect 1200" or other similar message to appear. It's boring, so why not listen to the handshake in case something cropped up. Also, you learned to "troubleshoot" the modem connection. Sometimes, due to poor quality phone lines, you could hear it "refuse" the faster connection rates, and the extra long training phase you knew it was going to be slow. That's useful information!

Why is it we're not seeing and hearing this carrier frequency when the modems are sending and receiving data after closure of the handshake-procedure, but just a lot of noise in every frequency band between 0 - 4 kHz? Reply[214]Delete Replies 1. [215]quantumdude[216]11 March, 2017 15:28 In a way, you are hearing just the carrier, but its amplitude and phase are varying so much so fast that it creates other frequencies around the carrier. This is due to mathematical properties of sines. The appearance of noise is just our inability to track the modulation at such a high speed. [217]Delete Replies Reply Reply 45.

[229]Quentin Cranthorpe[230]23 March, 2019 22:40 This is fascinating, thank you for sharing! How does this compare with DSL signalling, do those modems have a similar handshake?

One Reddit post says it was part of the probing signal. Reply[233]Delete Replies 1. [234]quantumdude[235]23 July, 2019 01:12 If I understand what you're referring to, it's called Digital Impairment Learning, and is used by digital v.9x modems to check for things like robbed-bit signalling that could corrupt PCM samples (see https://goughlui.com/2016/05/03/project-the-definitive-collect ion-of-v-90v-92-modem-sounds/). [236]Delete Replies Reply 2. [237]Unknown[238]11 February, 2020 14:25 Yeah, it's a DIL, and actually I wanted to mention something about this. The audio is definitely a V.90 connection because of V.8bis handshake and the audio from the answering modem in the end, which I believe is a scrambled data in PCM. I mean, it's completely different from a TCM noise so it's definitely not a V.34 handshake. Regarding that, I would mention that the first wave sent by a client modem in Phase 3 is not just a scrambled data, but some other useful signals and most importantly - the DIL descriptor, called Ja in a V.90 protocol. The digital modem receives it, sends some other data (including some scrambled), and then, as soon as it receives a signal from client modem, it starts to play DIL sequence. Yeah, the trick is - this "bong bong" sound is not played by YOUR modem, but instead it's played by your ISP modem which is interesting. Also different modems have different DIL sequences which means different sounds. [239]Delete Replies Reply Reply 50.
