Can any body tell me that is there any difference btwn. Arduino gsm-shild and normal gsm modem .?Do i have to code Arduino differently to send data when i'm using normal gsm modem ..?? and how can i connect Arduino-Uno to normal gsm modem..???
Have you worked with Arduino and shields before? If so you would not ask the question... A shield is placed directly onto the Arduino has has defined pins, usually for a shield there is also a suitable library to use. For you modem you have to work the commnunication through the supported interfaces yourself. So some reading on the shields and how to communicate through serial protocols before buying anything.
Never needed to do that, but there is plenty of documentiation on the Arduino project sites. If in doubt just search for the library you want to use and check the Google site or forum link that comes with them.
