You should then be notified by the provider of your qualification confirmation and target install date. Somewhere in all this you need to fill out a contract and send it back to the provider. Target install dates can range from 7-30 or more days depending on the level of line conditioning that must take place prior to installation. On date of install a technician will most likely be dispatched to install the DSL modem on-site. You must have a phone jack for the qualified circuit in the vicinity of the computer and a network adapter in your computer when the technician arrives or you will need to pay them to install one for you.
