Is modem built-in, or will it need an external modem to connect to internet?

External. There is a port on the back to plug any standard network cable into, which also works for modems.

If you mean a Regular Modem, No. There is a Ethernet (the bigger phone plug looking thing) to plug in for high speed internet. I don't suggest this computer with Windows 8. It was confusing for my 73 year old father in law. I suggest it with Windows 7 for anyone over 30 to be honest.

Yes, I have it connected to my Router. My router connected to Modem and all other devices connected to Router.

Yes, Dynamic DNS or VPN in. Plugging it in won't automatically put it on the internet.

This does not have a built in modem, the only advice I can give you for finding a built in Modem/Router is to look for a Router built for Gaming, they are always the best as online gaming requires large amounts of data flow, out and in. Myself personally, I would never combine the two. Reason, because if one goes out, they both go out. At least if the router quits working you can still Ethernet into the modem and get online.

You shouldn't need a driver for a modem unless you're using a USB connection. I wouldn't recommend buying this as it's not supported by most cable companies.

This laptop has a built-in wireless adapter but in order to connect to the Internet you will need to go through a wireless router.

This is a modem and doesn't have wireless itself - that would require attaching to a router with wireless.

No. This modem has (1) Ethernet port. If you wish to connect an additional device to it, you must use a switch or router to add additional Ethernet ports.

No; it is not a modem. It is only a dual-baud router, and not a very good router AT ALL. I highly recommend staying away from Cisco/Linksys dual-baud routers. I recommend ASUS routers. But to continue the answer to your question - It takes an ethernet cable from your DSL Modem as input and provides a dual-baud WiFi signal for wireless use; it also has ethernet out that you can connect your PC to or other wired devices

No. Most modems do not have WiFi capability. You'll need to plug the modem into a device such as a router that has WiFi capability. That's the typical arrangement, and better than a combination modem/router, since you can replace or update the modem or router without having to buy the other.

Yes you need Internet from the phone company. The modem will provide Wi-Fi but without Internet service you won't get any connection to internet.

This is not a modem, this is a router. You should get the difference clear and make sure you know what you need before you lay down any money.

Yes, Router will be needed to connect wireless devices.Modem is a short of access point to access intrrnet from your service provider but using ethernet cable. You can buy separate router and create your own wireless network.
