I believe most DSL modems work through PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet). 
There is a HOWTO available for DSL under Linux at
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/DSL-HOWTO/index.html
Back when I was wrestling with this issue myself, most modems were not
supported via USB.  Not sure if that has changed.

Most likely, it is /dev/mouse.  This in turn will be a symlink to some
other more specific location.  If you want to know where, try 'ls -l
/dev/mouse'
Good luck.
