PPC6800 as dial up modem to connect to other computer...

[otacon72]

Not talking about dialing into #777 to get to the internet. I want to connect to another computer using the PPC6800 as a modem only... this possible?

Can you be more specific?

You can:

1) share your moguls internet with another computer (internet sharing)

2) use another computer through the mogul (remote desktop)

i think he wants to dial into another computer, liek RDP, but to over a phone line (to a computer that doesnt have an always-on connection)

i used to be able to do it with my LG vx8100, but i cant figure out how to do it with winmobile, there might be a program for it

just to warn you, if its anything like the 8100 it will still count as a data call, so youll want a data plan so you dont charged a ton of money

the question isn't that difficult to understand. i don't know why it's hard for people to realize that there's a desire to call other numbers than #777.


He (and I!) would like to use the phone to call a NON-SPRINT number, ie, an ISP. or anything computer that has a real modem. (remember modems... them things we used back in the early 90's....)

the phone, by definition does voice. modems operate over the same voice connection. i don't see why it shouldn't be possible. to talk to a fax machine, all you need is the voice connection.

The question is how do you get the phone to operate as a REAL MODEM, not just a sprint gateway. you want the computer to see the phone as a *real* modem, not a network adapter. are there drivers for this? is there software (please no 3rd party shit) that needs to be installed?

I would love to use my mogul to receive and send faxes rather than have to pay for a land line. Since many business in the real estate still use faxes as the main form of communications.
Thanks
