Modem? In this day and age? Not quite.

What you need to find out is the IP address of the host. If your hosting it yourself, you need to give that address to he other players. Otherwise you need to get the address of the host and connect through the TCP/IP option.

You can find your IP address through the ipconfig command. It is not the address beginning with 10 or 192.168 , those ranges are on a local network, not the internet.
