Mine was a 300 baud homemade job by the local computer users group from 1985 that hooked up to my Commodore 64.
First modem was 300-baud using an acoustic coupler (telephone handset laying into big rubber pieces) on a Cormemco System 1, around mid 1982. The Cromemco was my first "store-bought" computer, had a number of handwired systems before that dating back to early 1977 but they didn't have modems. I'm old school.
