Hello Janet, Can't recommend an internal modem that will work, simply as I don't know of one. Why not go on using the external modem that you already have? An excellent adsl modem for broadband internet access is the Netgear DG834. You can plug in up to 4 PCs with ordinary network cable (called Cat5e cable) and all you need in your PC is a network card, any of which will work with Linux. The best thing is that it will just work - your PC will be set to automatically pick up an address from the DG834 and the DG834 will hand one out. Easy.
