Thanks

you mean the Lan or ethernet card, to connect to your broadband or cable modem, or local network?  If so, they're pretty much generic and should be cheap, I think.

Most up to date motherboards have an ethernet built in. It will be called '10/100 ethernet' or 'LAN'

From my past experience do not put a DSL modem into a PCI slot on your computer. Go ahead and get the little box to sit on your desk and make use of the built in ethernet connection (if you have one). If not then spend a little and get a decent 10/100 PCI Network card.
