If we compare Win8 and Win7 from the traditional desktop part, we find that there is not much difference between the two. In fact, they still have great differences in details, such as network settings. So what is the difference between this network setting and the specific application? Let's discuss it together.
Win8's network settings are divided into two parts, one for the Modern UI interface and one for the traditional network settings interface.

Under the Modern interface, the network settings are only a small part, basically only used as a shortcut to open/close sharing and connect/disconnect broadband.

Traditional Network Settings Interface
Like Win7, Win8's network settings are all concentrated in the traditional settings page. There are two main paths to entering a traditional network setup. One is to enter through the control panel, and the other is to right-click on the network icon in the taskbar and select “Open Network and Sharing Center” to enter.
