You can't use etherent for a dialup connection.  You need a dialup modem.  Does your computer have a modem in it?

I was online with dial up before the port on the motherboard went bad, instead of repairing I went wireless, just want to get online out of town,, wired or wireless

A USB ethernet adapter should work the same as an ethernet adapter.  But, you haven't said what kind of connection you have, so it's difficult to give a 100% sure answer.
