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.
