ADSL modems all use either USB or Ethernet to connect to computer, they are more relaxed about physical wiring quality and length; it is the modem that has to near the wall socket you can wire the modem to computer any length that you want. Unless that "far" in your case is hundreds meters apart.

You have 4 option.
1. Run a ethernet cable. It can be ran up to 300m
2. Wireless. Your ISP may even have a wireless modem\router option available at little or no cost. You will need a wifi card thought.
3. HPNA. This option uses existing telephone wiring to reply your broadband much like an ethernet cabel does. It is just not as efficient. you are generally limited to 10Mbps. Since most ADSL or cable connection are less that is not a problem.
4. Ethernet of Power. This uses adapters to transmit your broadband signal over your standard house hold 120v power wiring.This is also a poor choice but it is simple and will generally provide more bandwidth than your ISP will provide to you.
I personally would crawl in the attic and run Cat5 cable.
