 If a wired modem is placed on a peripheral, using it (right-clicking) will "connect" that peripheral to the network, providing a "network name" for the device via chat (eg, a monitor might be "monitor_10") - joined computers can then refer to the peripheral by this name (eg ''[[Peripheral.wrap|peripheral.wrap]]("monitor_10")'').
