Your modem is just one part of a system designed to provide you with a wide range of communication features. Every component of the system is needed to enable these capabilities.

You may also have other software on your computer that can be used wirelessly with the modem, such as: file transfer appli‐ cations (FTP), chat or instant messaging, a VPN (Virtual Private Network) client, client software for a corporate server application.
