Modem in fact acts as an interpreter. When computer exchanges datas with other computers in internet,it has to take the assistance of telephone. But computer understands digital signal whereas telephone analog signal. For making reconciliation between the two requires one interpreter who can convert analog to digital and digital to analog. Modem's activity is to convert analog signal from telephone to digital understood by computer and vice verse.
