A GSM modem is a wireless modem that works and operates using a wireless GSM network. A GSM GPRS modem often behaves like a dial-up modem which receives and sends data through radio waves. The GSM modem is available in the form of a PC card or an external unit, which can be connected to a laptop or PC using a series cable, an USB cable, Bluetooth or Infrared. Like any GSM mobile phone, the modem operates by using a sim card from a wireless operator.
GPRS stands for General Packet Radio Service and a GPRS modem gives an additional support for data transmission using the GPRS technology. Based on a packet switch technology, GPRS is advantageous over GSM based on the fact that a GPRS modem has high data transmission capability. GPRS has a much faster SMS transmission speed as compared to GSM, sending over 30 messages per second. A GPRS enabled GSM modem work based on an extended set of AT commands which lets you use it as a dial-up modem and is defined as per GSM standards. With the AT commands, the GPRS modem can perform functions like reading, writing and deleting messages, monitoring the signal strength provided by a GSM carrier, sending SMS messages etc. A GPRS modem is typically needed for MMS.
