Getting
ADSL connected to your home
First
you need to find a ISP and contact them asking if you can
connect to ADSL in your area. Or you can use this site to
test it.

If
ADSL is avaible in your area the isp will create a account
for you. They will contact telecom to send a technician
to install a filter in your house and connect your phone
line to the ADSL DSLAM in the local exchange. You can install
your own filter but it is best if the telecom technician
does it.
Next
you have the choice to purchase either a ADSL modem or ADSL
router. The Routers are best if you want to connect more
than one machine to the internet. The modems are cheaper
and best for connecting a single machine.
