A modem. You purchase a modem for $15-100 depending on features and types. Most, if not all computers bought today come with 56K modems standard.

If your low on power outlets, go with an internal PCI based modem(56K). Otherwise buy an external modem, for they are much easier to troubleshoot when problems arise! Also, you won't need to power cycle (reboot) your PC when you do need to reset the modem which must be done with all internal modems usually.
