DSL stands for Digital Subscriber Line. It is an ultrafast, always-on Internet connection that uses existing copper wire telephone lines. Unlike dial-up modems, DSL doesn't use any dial or connect/disconnect process and can deliver data at speeds of 8 Mbps (depending on the location and the network infrastructure). A file that takes minutes to download using the fastest dial-up modem takes only seconds to download using a DSL modem.
Although DSL uses existing telephone lines, it uses a different frequency range on that telephone line. This means you can talk on the telephone and use the Internet simultaneously.
