For the modem sound, look in the internet setup you're using. If there isn't one,
you can add a modem prefs there that will override what you have set in the main
OS Preferences, or in the InOut prefs. In my case, my main, general preferences is
the volume at the loudest setting. However, my internet setup specifies no sound.
So, when I'm connecting with this setup, the modem is silent.
Regarding your second problem, I would guess that something is wrong in your login
script, in your internet setup. If you don't have a login script, then maybe you
would need one. You can debug a login script by adding one first, if you don't have
any, then turning the "Display script activity" checkbox in the login script
editor. That will definitely help as you will see what's your ISP's server is
sending and what your Newton is responding.
