A dial-up connection can be used to play Diablo, and you only have to pay for the phone connection. A prerequisite for such a game is that both users have the same versions of the Diablo game application.
Instructions
Step 1
Make sure that the Remote Access Server component is available in the main menu of the system or install it. To do this, open the menu by clicking the "Start" button, and go to the "Control Panel" item. Expand the Add or Remove Programs link and expand the Windows Setup node.

Step 4
On the computer receiving the call, in the same way open the main menu "Start" and go to the item "Control Panel". Expand the "Network and Internet Connections" link and expand the "Network Connections" node. Go to the "Create a new connection" section and select the "Set up a direct connection to another computer" option.
