How do I share a DSL connection when I'm using an internal DSL modem with a standard RJ11 jack. Will a Linksys DSL router work in this configuration? I have used then with external cable modems before.

Because there is not an Ethernet interface between the DSL modem and the PC, you cannot use a DSL router for sharing of the connection as you can with an external modem.

However, theoretically you should be able to get a software solution such as Internet Connection Sharing (Windows2000 Professional or Win98SE) to work in this configuration but I've never done it so I can't say for sure.
