I found it interesting to know that ADSL modem can be used via USB in GNU/Linux. I was told that its tough. Yes, indeed its tough. But its possible. For eg, my Siemens modem use GlobeSpan chipset. The USB driver for the same for GNU/Linux is available for download and appriciable work is being done in this direction. The configuration seemed a bit too geeky, but a small effort can help a user to setup the modem and use it via USB.
Well anyway, its always better to use modem via LAN card!!

Actually WLL uses a different mechanism. Its more like a dialup. This one is broadband (Dataone not WLL). I dont remember the exact phone number to be dialed and other specific things, but they are almost similar to Reliance USB modem. Please see my post on Reliance USB modem. You will have to make some minor adjustments. Basically idea is to use wvdial.
