Okie, I"m not familiar with what kind of provider ISDN is - so if it's DSL or cable, you'll need a Broadband Adaptor to get the cube online, but if it's dial up you'll need the dial up modem adaptor.

You won't need an ethernet card in your comp.

For Broadband, You will most likely just plug
the BBA into the modem like you would your computer's cord instead of the computer. If you have a router, use an open plug and standard ethernet cables.

If we're talking dial up, your cube will need to steal a phone wire and phone jack to plug in from the adaptor...

ISDN is a fast internet conection thats not quite as quick as broadband, but somewhat faster than plain old 56k.
As far as i know, you still need to dial into the service, however normal modems are incompatable.

To get your gamecube online wiht it you will need to use either a Combined ISDN modem/router, and ethernet lead to your gamecube

if you have an internal P.C ISDN modem, or a USB modem, internet coinection sharing is your best option, using a spare ethernet card, and a crossover ehternet/network cable.
