Hi JC,

I suggest you have your ADSL modem changed to a
non-USB one (an ethernet one instead). Those are much
easier to configure and you could connect them
directly to your router. 

I used to have a USB ADSL modem myself but had it
changed so I wouldn't have to deal with them (I wasn't
sure if they were compatible anyways). I imagine your
ISP has an etherenet ADSL modem available. 

I also think the ethernet modem is faster.
