Describe the difference between connecting a computer to a dsl modem and connecting a computer to a dsl modem via usb.?

Ethernet is more reliable. USB speed depends on your CPU's load at the time, so if you are running a lot of programs at the same time, the available speed for USB ports is decreased, resulting in a slower connection. Connect with ethernet if possible. USB would be helpful though if you want to share your connection with, say, another computer of a gaming console through your ethernet. You could connect through USB and share through ethernet. But if you are just trying to connect to the internet with solely one computer, use ethernet.

The main reason you get a faster connection at work than at home is because your workplace is likely paying for a better internet service than you are.

Finally, your workplace likely has more people using the internet at any given time than your home does, which can also contribute to a slower connection.

What is the difference between ISDN and DSL?

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 connection

DSL vs ISDNThe DSL vs ISDN table given below highlights key differences between both the technologies :DSL vs ISDN Connection

Can i use my laptop internal modem instead of a dsl or cable modem to hook up to linksys router ethernet cable so i could get online for your PS3 and laptop?

Sorry you can not. The laptops internal modem is mostly a PSTN device. This means it can only be used by phone lines.

ADSL and Cable modems work in a different way.

If you want to connect a laptop and a PS3 to the Internet a Linksys Router with multiple LAN connections must be used.

The setup is then:

INTERNET

CABLE/DSL Modem

If it is a different outlet but the same subscribed phone line you should have no problems. If you plan on taking your modem to another location (different phone number) this will not work.

What wires do you need to run from your outside phonebox to your phone jack to connect dsl?

You do not need to run any wires. DSL connects directly to the phone jack. You run phone line from the phone jack to a filter, then to the DSL Modem. You can also install a filter at the interface to eliminate the need for filters inside the home. If you install interior filters, you will need one at each phone jack that is being used by any device. From the modem you can either run USB or Ethernet cable to the computer if the modem is a USB/Ethernet modem. I do not recommend USB. Use the Ethernet if at all possible. The connection is more stable and slightly faster. If your computer has no Ethernet connection, you can install an Ethernet card for as little as $20. Use a good quality Cat5 or Cat6 cable from the Modem to the computer.
