Well the definition on the computer is "A modem is a device or program that enables a computer to transmit data over". So let me break that down, a modem is a little device inside the computer that you call an expansion card and without it there is no way to get on to the internet. (yipes) The modem allows you to get on to the internet so you can sent objects to other computers. There are two types of modems, most are internal modems which are on the inside of the tower case and some are external and sit on the outside of the computer.

The picture below is what an external modem looks like.
