if all it is, is a USB that connects to your computer and gives it the internet, then that is a wireless connection. DSL is usually directly through cable or optical lines, and dialup is the old school kind of internet that connects to the phone line, and makes this terrible buzzing noise every time you connect to another computer, to give you internet.
