Previously used data centric application essentially used direct modem connections for exchanging the data amid Client and Servers. The data transfer through such modems is not secure, which makes it easy for the hackers to intercept your data through the phone line scanner that works remotely. To have a secure mode of data transfer today the earlier applications have been replaced by TCP/IP networks. With TCP/IP networks, you can use Virtual Private Networking (VPN), SSH or other safe tunnel assuring privacy and security. But, the problem arises when you need to get a new software that usually cost much on your pocket. Now, you can try out Software Modem 2.0.2 which is a cheap and competent solution for the purpose. It forms virtual modems, which use internet or local network, and can be easily accessed by applications requiring direct modem connections for their functioning.
Software Modem 2.0.2 application requires you to follow a simple process for setting up the virtual modem. The process begins with adding the virtual modem by filling in the necessary information. You need to select the Virtual serial port like COM 4 from the drop-down menu, and enable features for accepting “incoming calls” on TCP-port. Further, while connecting to virtual modem on the other PC, with mentioned options also enable connecting to remote address for all outgoing calls and enter the remote computer name/IP address and TCP-port details. Click ‘Ok’ and the program would install the modem, completing which the virtual modem is shown listed on the program screen. Now you can easily transfer data through virtual modem, and these can be integrated with your application. One of the best features of virtual modem application is ‘Address Book’, which supports translating phone numbers transparently into IP addresses. Further, you need not modify phone numbers in communication programs but just insert them in Address Book.
