Hello, I've been programming a mail program now I don't have a problem with my program but with the modem. Is it possible that there is a certain range on a modem? Ik have a house and my friend has a house I can send mails to him and he can send mails to me but my friends 800 blocks further can't send or receive mails. What could the problem be? Ps It's not the program because I used a copy of the program at my house and that's working so…. Grtz MinerStijn

There is a range. You can either build repeaters to send the messages long distance, or the range is adjustable in the config file. Also the higher the computer the longer its range.
