External Modem
An external modem is a small device that connects to a computer by a USB (Universal Serial Bus) or serial connection. Modems that use a USB connection are easier to set up than modems that use a serial connection. An external modem takes up room on your desk, but can be moved and used with other computers. Most external modems have lights to indicate the status of the modem and whether the modem is working properly.
TYPES OF MODEMS
Most modems available today can transfer information at speeds up to 56 Kilobits per second (56k), depending on the quality of the telephone line connection Modem standards ensure that modems made by different manufacturers can communicate with each other. V.92 is the current standard for 56k modems.
Input and Output Devices
You can use the same telephone line for telephone and modem calls. If you have a call waiting feature, you can use software, often referred to as modem-on.
