ISDN: Integrated Services Digital Network DSL: Digital Subscriber Line
the phone equipment (substation, etc) must be DSL compatible. If not, you can't get DSL. DSL is also limited to distance which is about 18,000 feet from the CO.
You can get DSL without a phone line but it has to be installed by the DSL company. Some larger urban areas also provide free wi-fi for residents, so if you have a wi-fi compatible computer, you should check to see whether your city/town has such a program.
DSL vs ISDN ConnectionDSL, or Digital Subscriber Line, make use of existing telephone lines to transfer data to users at high speeds - as much as 100 times faster than standard analog modems. With the help of DSL, all websites which usually takes minutes to download through a dial-up connection can be downloaded in seconds. In addition to this, huge files can be delivered in seconds, and bandwidth-hogging applications such as online meetings and video cams work efficiently. ISDN ConnectionISDN, or Integrated Services Digital Network, on the other hand uses phone lines in use to deliver data, voice and fax transmissions over the same phone line. Till the time DSL was introduced, ISDN was considered as the least expensive option for small and medium-sized companies to get a fast digital connection to the Internet or a corporate Local Area Network (LAN). ISDN connection transfers at speed up to 128 kbps, considerably faster than a dial-up modem connectionDSL vs ISDNThe DSL vs ISDN table given below highlights key differences between both the technologies :DSL vs ISDN Connection ISDN ConnectionMaximum Speed 128kbpsDSL ConnectionDSL Speed - Average 384 kbpsDSL Speed - Top Speed 1.5kbpsFeaturesConsistent Data RateYesYesYesSame Speed Both DirectionsYesYesYesPer Minute Usage FeesYesNot ApplicableNot ApplicableTransfer Rate in seconds100 KB Word File831500 KB PDF attachement391331 MB image file782672 MB Power Point file1565213As shown in the DSL vs ISDN table above, DSL main advantage over ISDN is even the slowest DSL connection is still faster than any ISDN connection available.

No, DSL can use the same phone line as your house phone. The reason for this is that DSL operates in a different frequency band than normal phone transmissions.
There are ISDN, DSL and Cable
yes
They are separate systems in your phone line. The DSL is a digital signal that has nothing to do with the analog phone signal. The bandwidth of a phone line is large enough to handle both with no issues.
You are probably missing a DSL Line Filter on one or more phones.
Do you have a DSL and HOME phone service combination?
You need a DSL line and a DSL modem for a home connection. Contact your local phone company or ISP for a connection.
