Albeit true that a modem does not necessarily represent an Internet
Connection, per se - it does represent the possibility to make said Internet
connection. Either through the setup of a RAS server on this persons
admitted server or through the ISP through which the server itself already
has a connection.

The simplest solution I can see is to give the client an Internet
Connection.
