Most ATMs are in running on Windows 7 with PC hardware. The hardware is probably custom made but still very similar to what you would find in a desktop.
As far the network, you cant access ATMs from the Internet at least in the US. Most of the providers have leased lines to a central server somewhere and then leased lines to whatever 3rd parties they talk to. US banks arent too crazy on letting people remotely service ATMs that are having software problems.
