And yes, it is easy to do. Just plug in and go. Make sure you get an appropriate modem/router, though; avoid the USB models like the plague. Zen
What do you have against the USB modems? I was quite happy with my Alcatel frog running under Linux, I got some very nice uptimes with it and the only reason they weren't longer was due to the electricity having a key meter... I actually prefer the modem terminating on a linux pc rather than through a router as you can see network traffic directly on the DSL interface rather than being abstracted by ethernet.
