THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MODEMS, MODULES AND
MOBILES
A GSM/GPRS Modem is an external equipment,
whereas the GSM/GPRS Module is a module
that can be integrated within an equipment. It is
an embedded piece of hardware.
A GSM mobile, on the other hand, is a
complete system in itself with embedded
processors that are dedicated to provide an
interface between the user and the mobile
network.

UNDERSTANDING MODEMS
Wireless modems generate, transmit or decode
data from a cellular network, in order
to establish communication.
A GSM/GPRS modem is a class of wireless
modem, designed for communication over
the GSM and GPRS network.
It requires a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module)
card just like mobile phones to activate
communication with the network.

USE OF AT COMMANDS
The MODEM needs AT commands, for interacting
with processor or controller, which are
communicated through serial communication.
These commands are sent by the
controller/processor.
The MODEM sends back a result after it receives a
command.
Different AT commands supported by the MODEM
can be sent by the processor/controller/computer to
interact with the GSM and GPRS cellular network.
