I think ender modems are too much owerpowred.
What should be done with them:
1) Remove them
2) Smaller distance
3) More expensive crafting recepie
For exemple:

I would not be surprised at all if you could disable them in the config. The whole point of them is the extreme range. Tools like Minetweaker should allow you to set a custom recipe.

4) Disable range detection ?

The problem is that removing the long range defeats the purpose of Ender Modems entirely, and making them more expensive doesn't make that much sense to me.

5) give out sender world id or name instead of range

You only get distance if you're receiving from the local dimension, you already don't get distance if it's not, so returning the world id would buff the modem instead.

Would not buff if you would not get range in the same world. It would be good for long range connections but not for position check.

Or maybe it can only send messages to another dimension, and the receiving modem has to be in the same location as the sending one (but in the other dimension) so for example: ow: x=16 nether: x=2. because wy would you build sattelite networks if you can just have one ender modem.
