Do you happen to have a USRobotics (or other brand) hardware modem around, with a serial port (DB9 or DB25)? If so, an inexpensive USB->Serial adapter should work with that. Make sure you get the Prolific PL-2303 chipset, which is available in various brands of adapters. I like the Plugable one.

Are you talking about an old dialup modem?? Wow, I have not used one of those in more than a decade! (maybe 15+ years!!)
The problem was successfully solved by the way, since El Capitan 10.11.4 running the "old" beautiful Modem as on day 1

Ah, the good old days... 2400 baud modem, terminal type vt100, that classic handshake sound, etc. I remember when I got my first 14.4 modem, what a speed demon THAT thing was!

No, it is but is not sent therefore with what speed a fax .. the unit at that time in Graves (Apple dealer) cost about 65 euros, and I then bought it with Mac OS Snow Leopoard. And I sometimes have to send faxes from time to time (I know that there are also fax services online) I want to use it on. also to use the only reason why I am pleased then purchased hardware on .. why should I throw it away when it then now is still running?

It's just a pity that it the sounds DialUp unfortunately can not hear on Mac OS.
There is no speaker settings as for the modem. Under Windows 8.1 and Windows10 can hear this dial tone. Didl ... Didl.. Di ... and so on until the connection with the remote fax tone is then produced and the speed is but at least at 14,000 KB/s. Some modems can only 9,600 KB/s transfer.
