Veteran with a very dumb question: How do you access the on-chip modem features?

I was just building a computer with a friend this past weekend and have admittedly not used a modem in some time. There were features in the bios for enabling the KT-333's on-chip modem and it mentioned it in the instruction manual but there was not one word about how or where to connect a phone line...and obviously no connector was available on the mobo. How does one use this feature? Little help here?

PS- the mobo was the Soltek KT-333 model...but now that I think about it I have built several systems with this feature and have never noticed a phone-line connection or any reference as to how to go about it.
 
There should be a little metal thing that mounts on the back of the case and connects to some pins on the motherboard. I'm not sure if it's supposed to come with one or if you have to order it seperately in this case.
 
I checked the manual and there is no mention of any header to even connect such a thing to...not to mention the fact that I have not even ever seen a bracket that you describe. Anyone?
 
It's probably to enable AMR modems,do you have one of those funny looking AMR slots?

Those are enabled in the bios so that's why there's a setting in the bios. You have to go buy an AMR modem.

Those are very inexpensive & work very well.
