Do I need a modem to connect the router to DSL?

Marconi Communications South Africa
No. Our routers have internal modems.You just need to connect them to a DSL enabled line directly (or via a microfilter, or splitter faceplate). You will need to obtain an Ethernet Network Interface Card, such as the PCI network card commonly referred to as a LAN card. Please take great care not to damage your PC or touch any of the electronics when installing these cards on desktop or tower PC systems. Always read the instructions first.

How does a Cable Modem connect to a computer?

F.A.Q.'s - faq - Frequently Asked Questions
There are several methods for computer connection, but it appears that Ethernet 10BaseT is emerging as the most predominant method. Although it probably would be cheaper to produce the cable modem as an internal card for the computer, this would require different printed-circuit cards for different kinds of computers, and additionally would make the demarcation between cable network and the subscriber's computer too fuzzy.

What is a DSL Modem?

Vermont Telephone Company
A DSL Modem is not a true modem (which stands for Modulator/DEModulator). It is actually a state-of-the-art all-digital device that communicates using 10BaseT network protocols and provides an "always on" connection to your ISP (Internet Service Provider). What this means is that you will be ready to "surf" the net as soon as you turn on your computer. It does not require an additional phone line, and you can use the Internet while talking on the phone.

Can't I just get a DSL line or a cable modem and host the site or my own computer?

Web Hosting Universe -hosting FAQ host frequently asked ques...
Sure, you could do that, but it's not a good idea for several reasons. First, a vast majority of ISPs won't let you legally use a residential cable modem or a DSL line to host a public server. You would have to get a more expensive business package. Second, ADSL and cable lines usually have lower upstream bandwidth than downstream bandwidth, so your site may appear to be sluggish under heavy traffic. Third, DSL and cable lines have a much lower reliability than dedicated T1 or better lines.

How do I connect a modem to the NeXT?

news.answers/NeXT-FAQ
Previously, we suggested that people use Mac modem cables; however, it has come to our attention that there is no one standard Mac modem cable. Since correct modem operation on a NeXT depends upon a correctly wired modem cable, buying a Mac cable is not a good idea. Some Mac cables do not allow dial-in and no Mac cable allows the use of hardware flow control. For these reasons, we are recommending that only cables that meet NeXT specifications be used.
