Need help finding out what USB Modem I have. loldrivers. what.

[WiiClock]

So I need to install "USB MODEM DRIVER" on my laptop, but I don't know exactly what my USB MODEM DRIVER is.
Like, what company it is or whatever.

There are no ethernet cables around and the only way for my laptop to access the internet is through the USB cable.
The desktop is connected right now through the same USB cable.


Can anyone help?

Go to network configuration or something like that and go to the screen where you can see what other devices are in your network, like other computers printers etc. It should be in there.

I've tried doing this and I installed drivers, restarted the computer but it still doesn't work.
In Device Manager, under "? Other devices" it's showing
Base System Device
SM Bus Controller
USB Cable Modem

I need the USB Cable Modem drivers, but I have no idea how the hell I get them.

I SERIOUSLY NEED HELP WITH THIS UGHGHDFJDKFJK.
Is there a program I can run that will tell me what kind of usb modem driver I need or what shitty hardware is in my computer?

xFire gives a nice summary of your hardware after signing up.
maybe it's in there.

though there probably are ways a lot easier than that

I know what wireless thing I have.
I know I have some kind of realtek ethernet fast bullshit, and I've updated that and it still doesn't work.

I mean, I've been connected through USB before, but that was before I cleared the hard drive.

I know it was like plug and play last time I did it.

haha got it working.
so instead of trying to update the drivers on my chips or whatever, i installed the drivers for the modem.
yeah, thanks comcast.com.
