It's used the same way as a desktop computer. You simply plug the Ethernet cable into the network interface card. You may need to adjust your Laptop's TCP/IP settings to connect to the modem. Wireless internet is also an option; however, you need a router with wireless capabilities.

What is an ADSL filter?

ADSL filter is a passive electrical circuit, (low pass filter) which is used along with an ADSL modem (for internet access). It can be built into an ADSL modem or is provided as a small box along with the modem. On one side it connects to the telephone network side. Other side has two connections one for connecting the phone and other one to connect to the ADSL modem. It essentially filters the high frequencies, which the modem uses, and thus prevents it from interfering with the telephone signals which uses lower frequencies for audio signals.
