Just create a mobile website, why do you care if they connect via GSM or GPRS or EDGE or anything else?

Its like you're saying, "I want to build a website, and the server should communicate with hardware with TCP/IP capability".

Hi ,
Thank you for the response. I actually dont understand what you are saying..
The site that going to develope should communicate with hardware. Through my mobile, I am going to connect my site. When i enter the data in that site, the site should command the hardware(not my mobile) and it should get the result.

Thank you!!

Wait, what? You want some kind of remote administration web site that you can connect to with your mobile phone?

If you're using a mobile phone that has a browser built in or access to the internet, just create a very simple mobile website. You can use somethign as basic as WAP or you can create a very simple mobile friendly browser if it's a blackberry type device. Setup a login page, to keep your command urls private. Behind the login page setup some basic urls that have access to commands that you need to execute. You can even do simple forms for input of data.

Yes, I agree with what KUB posted. I don't understand why your hardware that has GSM capability is significant. To do what you want to do, all you need is a web server on your computer that you can connect to with your mobile phone. Then use the site you create on your webserver to administer your computer.
