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.
