Hey.

Difference between internal and external modem are following :

Internal Modem

1. An internal modem is a modem that fits inside of a computer.
2. Internal modems typically ship with the computer and come pre-installed.
3. However, some computers may not have modems or the internal modem that came with the computer might be damaged or corrupt.
4. In either case, using an internal modem does not take up any additional space outside the computer, and can be powered using the computer's own power supply.

External Modem

1. An external modem is similar to the internal modem in that it also allows access to the Internet,
2. Unlike the internal modem, the external modem sits outside the computer.
3.The external modem can be used when a computer is unable to fit an internal modem inside of it.
4.The modem typically connects to the computer via a serial or USB cable, and is usually powered by an external source, rather then the computer.

Thanks.
