I am new to this by the way!

So can you tell me how to do this the best way or if there are any beter programs out there?
Cant use an ethernet cable, the cable is more likely a phone type, that you will need an adapter for to plug into a Comm port on your PC. and yes the Ascom platform will most likely be required for CDC, which is an outstanding piece of software for the price BTW...
