Best Answer

A local area network card allows your computer to connect to other computers. You need a LAN socket if you want to use high speed internet. If you want to use dial-up, you'd need a dial-up modem. However if you use cable, fiber, DSL, or satellite Internet with a regular PC, you will need a LAN socket unless the modem used with the service plugs into your USB port.
