IPCONFIG program does not report a modem connected. It reports an IP address such as 192.168.1.20 . That number and other information from IPCONFIG should be posted because details provide significant facts - information you do not yet realize.

Meanwhile the ethernet cable is how to connect. (Not earthnet - 'ether' as in what some once speculated was the universe). USB cable that requires drivers - don't bother.

Once that IPCONFIG number and report is confirmed, then a correct entry in IE Explorer can be entered.
