Final Parts Check!

Elite · 10-15-2005, 12:18 AM

As I've already mentioned several times before, I'm building a pc and i'm just double-checking so that i don't miss any parts. When the computer is first built, i just plan to have dial-up internet on it. I would like to know if i would need some type(s) of: Dial-Up Adapter or Ethernet Card for my internet to work?

You want dial-up internet access and therefore you would need to go and get a DIAL-UP Modem. However, I would advise you to look for a better alternative connection. Most modern motherboards do not have a an on-board dial-up modem.

So, for dial-up internet, is a modem all that is required or do i need something like:
(eg. Surecom 10/100 PCI Network Card)

You will need a modem. The Surecom 10/100 PCI Network Card id for ethernet, which is used for networks, or connecting broadband modems.
