What else can I help you with?
How can you connect both a PC with a modem and a lan card and laptop with a modem to the internet?
If your laptop has a LAN port, good. If not, you can get a PCMCIA card for LAN for around $10 on eBay. Then, connect your laptop LAN port to your desktop LAN port with a Crossover ethernet cable. Make sure you specify you need a crossover cable at the computer store, they are different from the normal ethernet cables found in most stores. Now dialup to the internet with your desktop. Now you need to go to your dialup connections. In Windows XP, you can do this by going to Start>Connect To>All ConnectionsIt will be different in other versions of windows.Right click on your dialup connection and choose properties. Somewhere in the properties there should be an option to share the dialup connection. Do this. At this point, your laptop should have internet.Good luck!
You use one internet provider and your daughter uses another Can you use her internet service by connecting her modem and your laptop when visiting?
if its cable or DSL, just plug your laptop into the modem and surf if its dialup you need her IPS's connection software on your computer and her username and password Thank You Kris - http://cssraven.com
What would happen if you took away the modem to a computer?
Well it depends on whether the computer connects to the internet with this modem. If you're talking about an external cable modem, you would probably lose your internet connection. If you're talking about an internal dialup modem inside the computer, removing it would mean you can't connect via dialup but it would not affect the external modem. Hope this helps
Should I turn off the Internet modem every night or should I keep it on all the time?
The I-net modem works with PC Login or Dialup network. If it's through router just disable connection & continue with other work.If Dialup then just swith it off!
Can you get a wireless laptop with a dial-up connection?
Yes, although it will be slower than broadband. You will still need a modem and some sort of connection from your modem to your computer.

if modem has wireless capablity, then no need for a router
What causes phones to switch off while browsing?
What type of connection do you have? If you have a dialup connection it will stop your phones from working because your modem is actively using the phone lines at that time. If you are using A DSL modem it could be that there is so much dsl traffic on the line that your phones cannot operate correctly. In this case a simple DSL line filter can do wonders.
Will my wireless connection be as fast as when I have the cable modem connected directly to my laptop?
Probably not because most of them can only get up to 10 mbps.
Bt home hub and a notebook laptop how do you connect your internet from your hub to your laptop?
If you have an ADSL modem, you connect the ADSL modem to the hub, and you connect cables from the hub to each computer. If you have only a single computer, you need no hub.If instead you want to use a WiFi (wireless) connection, you also need an access point for the wireless connection.
If a laptop says it doesn't have a modem what does that mean?
It doesn't have a modem.
How do you plug a Ethernet cable into a laptop?
It depends on the cable! If it's a standard LAN/Ethernet/RJ-45/'Giant Phone Cord', it plugs into (usually) the only port on the computer's back that will fit! If the cable is a phone cable, and you use dialup, you will need a modem. Most computers don't have modems in them anymore, because dialup was officially retired in 2004, and exists now for legacy reasons only. Dialup is not intended for normal internet usage. If you have DSL and it's a phone cable, you'll need a DSL modem. This should have been provided by your ISP. If it's a large round cable with a single pointy end (a coaxial cable), then you will need a cable modem. This should have been provided provided by your ISP. If it doesn't look like anything I described? You need to contact your ISP.
Are there any modems that allow free internet access?
if it is a dialup modem there are some free dial up internet providers but for a cable/dsl modem this is not possible as you would need a isp to provision the modem on their network
