In short, No!
You can purchase a modem that works off the GSM network (mobile phone network). These modems are relatively inexpensive about £30 in the UK. All you need to do, is charge it up, add the SIM card and pair (link up) whatever device you want to use to access the internet. These devices create a wireless access point (wifi), so you do not require a traditional fixed landline. Once you pair up the device you want to use, then you now have access to the internet.
The other way to have access to the internet, is by using a mobile phone that has internet tethering abilities. It's more or less the same process as above, except you don't use a separate GSM modem, the mobile phone becomes a GSM modem instead (this option saves the purchase of buying extra kit).
Another option is to take a wifi enabled device and find a free wifi local hotspot. You can visit a local library, they normally provide access to the Internet and in the UK provide a computer as well, although access is not always free using this option. There is also satellite internet, which can be expensive.

∙ 16y agoDSL comes into the house on a telephone line. One option, if it is available in your area, is a cable modem. The speed is actually higher than DSL for a comparable price from your cable provider. Some areas also have wireless access, requiring neither telephone or cable TV access.

Can you connect an internet router directly a to the main coaxial cable coming into a building?
No! The incoming cable needs to go to a modem that converts the incoming DSL Symbols to a digital data stream. This is then passed to the router in the form of some sort of LAN (Local Area Net) format like Ethernet. There may be combined modem/router devices around, but I am not aware of any. Note...I used the term "DSL symbols" because the symbol concept was originally a DSL trick, but it is now used in other non-DSL systems. DSL stands for Digital Subscriber Loop...this gets deeper and deeper as I talk about it.

A dry DSL line is also called a stand alone DSL line. All it means is that there is no dial tone or land line packaged or bundled on to the account. It is simply an internet connection that uses the local phone lines. If you don't need a phone line, a dry DSL line is great. Lots of people are just getting cell phones and using stand alone DSL.

How do you connect 56k fax modem with DSL?
The short answer is that you don't. Sure, you can plug a fax modem into a phone line that supports DSL, but it is just using the dial-up capabilities of the line and not the DSL capabilities. A regular modem like that functions like a telephone and transmits in the audible frequency range and not the higher DSL frequencies. With DSL, you'd use a DSL modem (with or without an included router), not a dial-up modem.
