Hi,
Here is my problem. I have four computers with modems. I want pc11 to communicate with pc12 and pc21 - with pc22. The trick is to make all this to work with 1 phone line. I am attaching a simple graphic of what I want.
There's a way to connect two modems directly to each other. Can't remember how to do it though, I'll see if I can dig that up. You can forget about hooking up 4 though, that just isn't going to work. You'll need a PBX and even then you won't be able to hook all of them up simultaneously.
Modems/serial lines create point to point connections. What you want is more or less a shared/bus like connection a la ethernet.

Oliver's Law:
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
What sort of modems are they.............56.6 dial-up or broadband (DSL/ADSL)?
Null modem cables are for local connections over short distances, so they won't work for you IMO.
If you cannot do someone any good: don't do them any harm....
As long as you did this to one of these, the least of my little ones............you did it unto Me.
What profiteth a man if he gains the entire World at the expense of his immortal soul?
