You don't need Internet access to defrag. Why would you think that?
The Defrag service is scheduled in the Task Scheduler.
All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Task Scheduler
Task Scheduler Library > Microsoft > Windows > Defrag
You can either edit or delete the Scheduled Defrag job.

i used to do it myself , and walk away, it defrags quicker on the newer systems

And if you click "Analyze Now" before doing a DeFrag you will probably find that your hard drive does not need a Defragmentation.
i did do that and i don't remember what i said at the moment
i'll check it again in a few days, the disc cleanup, seemed to be needed but that has to be run manually,right?
