I'm trying to set up a wireless home network, but my modem only has a usb output and my router has no usb input, only a dsl one.
What do I need to do to be able to use them together?
My computer picks up the wireless network fine and the internet works on my laptop, I just need to be able to get the router connected to the internet.
Thanks :)

The best answer is probably to get a different modem.

Contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and tell them to send you a modem with an Ethernet connection. Connecting to a modem using a USB cable is "old school". I recommend that you don't put any $$ into making a USB modem connect to your router. If your ISP gives you a hard time tell them that USB doesn't work on your computer anymore and your are going to find another ISP if they don't help you.
