modems are gone :( even worse, you can't connect your old retro home
computer, even to a bbs... or... maybe you can! :)
we can use a raspberry pi board, which will be our "modem". then, we can
connect our home micro to the raspberry, with a serial connection (rs232)
and use an old terminal program, to connect to a bbs or even the web.
its an easy process... the difficult part is the usb2serial connection,
for the rpi, but there are many solutions for that. the easiest way is to
buy an all ready be made cable from the store. else you can build your own
solution with cheap parts.
i don't want to just copy/paste the document in here... it wouldn't be
fair so i am posting some links, which have implemented both ways for
setting up the rpi.

putting-your-retro-computer-on-the-line
now you can use a rpi as a modem and connect your old amiga, cpc,
commodore to a bbs ;)
