Ender Modem
Item ID	computercraft:advanced_modem
Damage Value	0
Peripheral?	Yes- Modem (API)

Ender Modems are advanced versions of the Wireless Modem, introduced by ComputerCraft version 1.76 (for Minecraft 1.8). They use the same Modem API, but are capable of cross-dimensional transmissions.

Recipe

Example (Modem API)

• Place 2 computers and add modems to them by clicking the right mouse button while sneaking.
• Access them, and start Lua.
• Once Lua has started, wrap your modem using peripheral.wrap() (something like "modem = peripheral.wrap("<side of modem>")
• Type "modem.open (<A modem port number, anything from 1 to 65535>)" on one computer.
• Check if there exists a connection: a dim, red light should be found on the modem.
• Now, type "modem.transmit (<Same number as above>, <Also the same number>, 'Your message')" on the other computer. This should send your message to all computers connected.
• Opening the first computer should show the message written on the second computer.

Modem as a Peripheral

To use a Modem as a peripheral, you need to either call a method directly using peripheral.call(), or, wrap the modem using the Peripheral API. Wrapped modems provide all functions listed in the Modem API.

For this example, we have a Modem connected to the top of our Computer, we are going to open channel 5:

-- Immediately invoke a method without wrapping
peripheral.call( "top", "open", 5 )

-- You can also "wrap" the peripheral side to a variable:
local modem = peripheral.wrap( "top" )
modem.open( 5 )
