Modems convert digital data into analog signals that can be transmitted over cables or wirelessly. This data travels through an Internet Service Provider's (ISP) data center where email and other services are hosted. The data is then sent to users via cables run by cable providers or wirelessly using devices like the Palm VII which supported wireless internet access and security for e-business transactions.
