What does modem tapping mean in pawn tactics?

Answer 1

Well every house that has internet has a 'modem' here's a little outline of the

internet for you house.

1) cable comes from street to a box probably mounted on the side of your house. 2) Box cable normally would run through your roof or below your house up into a little box you have (normally located in someone's office area).

3) Cables run out of that box and into your computers, also the box may have a little Ariel on it an that will provide WiFi for your house.

So now we know that, well you know how to tap something (you could tap something with your finger or foot) well "modem tapping" is well known throughout a lot of games, the person simply "tapps" the modem with his hand or foot and for safety reasons the modem will simply "freeze" just temporarily. In a online gaming situation this normally means everyone in that persons game will be frozen and just stay there, this gives the person and advantage to quickly move and kill another player or get to a different position, this also can be referred to as "Map Jumping","Jumping" or "Teleporting" as on the other persons screen you will be in one place then "disappear" and pop up somewhere else.
