needed by a computer, and vice-versa. Technically, any device that
doesn't do that analog to digital conversion is not a modem (Here's my

Are you telling me that a DSL 'device' doesn't modulate the digital
signal over an analogue line into several different frequency bins and
demodulate what it receives back into digital? If you are saying that
