You need to provide more information; ADSL connections can be used via one of three methods - high speed serial, USB and Ethernet. (Ethernet being probably the best out of these in terms of compatiblity). Ask your ADSL provider what sort of ADSL 'modem' they are going to use and what connection it requires on your computer's end.
