The term "modem" is short for "MOdulator-DEModulator." Technically, it's a device that converts the analog signal on the telephone line to the digital signal 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 standard post on modems: 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 then just how does it work? What I wrote is my understanding of how it works. If you want more details, sorry, I'm the wrong person to ask and I can't provide them. your understanding is wrong. |
