What type of telecommunication hardware allows you to access the web?

A modem is the telecommunication hardware that connects a computer to the internet so the web can be reached.

A browser is software used to view web pages, not a piece of telecommunication hardware.

FTP is a file-transfer protocol, a set of rules rather than any hardware.

IRC is a chat protocol and again not a hardware device.

The modem converts the computer's signals to a form the line can carry and back again.

A router is often paired with it to share that connection among many devices.
