But without internet, how are they supposed to download and install network adapter driver and other drivers? If you are also troubled by this dilemma, here is two ways to install drivers without internet connection on Windows 7/8/10/XP/Vista.
Note: It is necessary to have a backup of drivers on your computer so that if the drivers are deleted accidentally, become corrupted or incompatible, you can get back the drivers easily.
Copy Lan/Wired/Wireless Drivers from Other Computer
You need another computer with network connection to download a network driver, then use a USB flash drive, a smartphone or any other device to copy the driver to the internet-disabled computer.
Step 1. Learn about the detailed information of your hardware device (PC model or the network card model) and operation system that you are using.
Step 2. On a computer with workable Wi-Fi or other network connection, go to the website of the device manufacturer and search for the network driver that is right for your network card. If you are using a off-the-shelf computer, you can directly go to the PC manufacturer's website. Or you can go to network card manufacturer's website
Step 3. Download the Lan/Wired/Wireless driver file on the computer and copy the file to a USB flash drive.
Step 4. Plug the USB flash drive to your computer that has no network connection. And copy the network driver file to the computer.
Step 5. Install the network driver on the computer.
Install Drivers with Driver Talent Without Internet

Step 4. You can continue to use the program to install other drivers on your computer.
What If You Have No Network and USB Drivers
If you need to install drivers without both network and USB drive, which means that you have no network driver while the computer won't recognize your USB drive, you can:
Try to connect the USB drive to a USB 1.1 or 2.0 port. In some Windows system like Windows 7, the system has no the USB 3.0 drivers from its first build so the USB drive won't be recognized if you plug it into USB 3.0 port.
Use CD to install drivers. When you first purchase a computer or peripheral devices, the computer or device often comes with a CD stored with basic drivers. Use the CD to install drivers without network or USB.
