Insert Windows 8 DVD in DVD drive and open command prompt with admin privileges (Means holding the ctrl key when opening CMD or right click on cmd ->run as administrator) and type the following command.
Dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /All /Source:x:\sources\sxs /LimitAccess
Another method:
If you open CMD.EXE with Administrative Privileges i.e. at elevated level & run the this DISM command dism /online /get-features you will see that from the State that .NET Framework is not part of the Operating System.
So the first thing you need to do is to copy the required package to local machine before you run the command to install .NET Framework. To do that use Windows 8 ISO/DVD/USB Media. You need to copy SXS folder to local machine located at D:\sources\sxs (In this case D: your drive letter on which you have loaded Windows 8 Media)
You can also use the following command to copy this folder locally. xcopy d:\sxs\*.* c:\sxs /s
Once completed, in order to install this feature you can run the following command dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /All /SourceC:\sxs /LimitAccess and hit Enter
After completing the installation of .NET Framework 3.5 you can see that the feature is enabled in the Control Panel –> Program and Features
Bingo. Now you can enable .NET Framework feature on Windows 8 without needing of an internet connection.
