I'm left to guess what step you could not find information about.

I'm taking your word you are searching for answers.

Hi all,
I know it might be a strange question, but I am trying to make to PC communicate together through a dail-up modem without a phone line...
I have a phone cable that connects (directly) the 2 PCs together and I want the 56k dail-up modems to synchronize so they can exchange data.
there is apparently an issue since I don't have a dail-tone nor a carrier.
any help would save my life (would be very helpful)
