How to enlarge the sound volume of MODEM dialing?

When I used MODEM to dial, I found that the sound volume of dialing was too
small. It seemed that it just came from the inside of host machine not the
speakers. How can I enlarge the sound volume or make it going through the
speakers?

Thank you.

In the Device Manager open the Properties for your modem and on the
"Modem" tab adjust the volume.
 
I have adjusted the volume to the maximum, but it didn't work. The volume
doesn't come out of the speakers, but around the host machine.

The dial tone and the other modem sounds are coming from the speaker in the
modem. There is nothing to hear except the screeching of data tones during
connection. Most folks find this objectionable and turn the modem sounds
off. The only way I know of to send the sounds through the power speakers
is to have someone go into the modem and bring out an audio lead and then
connect it to the sound card. Here are some settings for the modem you may
have a use for.

Here's how to get those modem sounds "On", "Off", "Loud", "Medium" & "Low".
(These are the most common settings, but your brand may be different)

Take this path:
Start
Settings, Control Panel
Double Click on Modems
Select, Properties
Select, Connection
Select, Advanced

In the Extra Settings Box, enter one or more of the following:

Setting What it does:

M0 Speaker Off (its M zero)
M1 Speaker On until carrier received
M2 Speaker always On
M3 Speaker disabled while dialing and after carrier received

L0 Speaker volume Low (its L zero)
L1 Speaker volume Low (same as L0)
L2 Speaker volume Medium
L3 Speaker volume High

After entering the desired setting, i.e., M2L2 OK your way out to the
Desktop and you are finished. Most folks don't want the sounds from the
modem speaker and just enter M0. "Silence is Golden".<G>

Note: The speaker referred to is the modem speaker, not the computer or
external speakers (if equipped).
 
Thank you. Don.
The speaker of modem works. I want to make the sound louder. It seems that
my external speaker has some problem with the sound of modem though it works
well for all media players in my OS.

What causes the external speaker not to work for the modem speaker?

Should the external speakers be plugged into which holes (There are three
holes for plugging the wire of speakers)

Modem sounds were not designed to be sent to the external multi-media
speakers. However, you can get the newer "voice speakerphone" type of
modems to re-direct the sounds to the external speakers. The speakerphone
modems have two 1/8 headphone jacks (labeled as "mic" and "speaker"???).
Plug in a cable from the "speaker" jack of the modem to the "line-in" jack
of the sound card.
