Use of telephone modem over network
I would like to be able to use a telephone modem (for purposes of dialing
out) installed on desktop (running win xp pro) from a networked laptop (running win 7 pro). Is it possible? If so, how? |
Use of telephone modem over network
this is the xp section but it should work the same for win7 once you connected there will be a network adapter for the dialup connection in the network connections window in fact i think the dialup connection icon is there even if your not connected (been a while) :) so you right click on that one and proceed to share the internet the same as if it would be a lan or wifi connection i know it works in xp because i have done it many many times (back in the days) please note that this might be not as easy if your using AOL, it has to be a real dialup connection that gets a real IP address in my case we went to roadtrips and had laptops, at gas stations/motels they sometimes have phone lines you can dial 800 and local numbers free, so i dialed up (i used MSN and earthlink WITH OUT they software) and shared the connection either over lan cable or wifi so we can get all online with 1 phone line... it worked like a charm every time |
