Well I know there's a Wireless cell phone modem for Laptop units you can insert in your Cardslot….it' runs at about 110 Kb, which is certainly better than 36 – 47 Kb for a standard modem.
Now you can get DSL only on a landline without having to pay for Voice….it'll give you a minimum of 768 Kb up to 3MB if you pay for the higher level of service….You may have to insist that you only want DSL and absolutely no phone service

A few phone companies will do DSL without land-line telephone, and that may be your best bet: the only other alternative is satellite, which is expensive ($50 a month), and at the moment not available because the satellite company is debugging a new bird.

You can still use a wireless card like a laptop from sprint, cingular,etc. in your desktop

There are wireless compaines that will supply you service such as verizon wireless or others that are unique to your location. These compaines are often capable of providing DSL performance without the need for a phone line. Second option is to obtain an omnidirectional antenna and hook it up to a linksys wireless-G PCI card through a pigtail and you will be able to leech off of your neighbors for miles away, depending on geographics. Legit or not legit your call, but both work.

AT&T offers a NO phone line DSL service.
When you call you have to ask them to transfer you to the DSL with no dial tone line because you go to the main channel and get routed from there.
Don't call on a Monday or after 7pm…longer holds.

Some cell phones can be used as a modem.I have an iDEN motorola i850 with nextel that works.
