Standard modems have a difficult time transmitting data over cellular phone connections. Certain modems (typically in PC Card or PCMCIA form) have special protocols designed to enhance cellular communications, and may also have various adapters that connect them to different cellular phones. However, even with such special support, data transmission over a cellular connection is problematic, typically in the range of only 9600 bps, and disconnections are not uncommon.
