I presume you had cat5 (rj45) ethernet cable attached to an ethernet card in
your machine going to the DSL modem (which then went to the phone line).  If
this is the case, you will only need to plug in the same ethernet cable from
your computer to the Cable modem.  Yup, should be that easy.

hope that helps,
David
