Assuming that the system is configured with a current ISP subscription, and it's dialing a working phone number to access the Internet, then open Device Manager and check for any problems with the modem.
If there are none, then do a diagnostics check on the modem in Control Panel.
If it fails the test, then either the modem or its slot may be bad.
