How the f*ck does a modem work? - eviltoast

Google searches have only yielded 5th grade level examples (“the modem talks between your ISP and your home network!”) or articles I would need a degree to understand. Can anyone provide an explanation that’s somewhere in between the two? I understand the fundamentals of how the Internet works, and how LAN works regarding a router and individual devices, but I’m curious to know more about the link between those.

    OSI Layers are bullshit leftovers from the past, they’re no longer applicable in modern computing.
