I recently moved to Windows 8 and I was wondering how to connect a modem to my windows computer. I know how it is done in Windows 7 but Windows 8 is totally different and I do not want to spoil anything. How to install a modem in Windows 8?
The major differences from the user point of view between Windows 7 and Windows 8 are in the user interfaces. Other than that, most of the classic Windows settings are almost the same in both versions of Windows.
To connect to a modem, navigate to the Control Panel, open Network, and Sharing Center and select Dial-Up Connection. If the modem is not detected automatically then try setup connection anyway. You should now be connected to the modem and you will be able to access the internet on your computer via the modem.
