as far as i know ROS doesn't support any PCI or USB adsl modems

you should use external ADSL Router

There is big deferent between FAX Modem (Dialup Modem) and internal ADSL Modem Card.
And from your post before I think that you are talking about Internal ADSL Modem (PCI Card)
And Mikrotik don’t support PCI ADSL Cards.

Summary
The MikroTik RouterOS supports the Xpeed 300 SDSL PCI Adapter hardware with speeds up to
2.32Mbps. This device can operate either using Frame Relay or PPP type of connection. SDSL
(Single-line Digital Subscriber Line or Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line) stands for the type of
DSL that uses only one of the two cable pairs for transmission. SDSL allows residential or small
office users to share the same telephone for data transmission and voice or fax telephony.
Specifications
Packages required: synchronous
License required: level4
Home menu level: /interface xpeed
Standards and Technologies: PPP (RFC 1661) , Frame Relay (RFC 1490)
Hardware usage: Not significant

Xpeed Interface Configuration

Property Description
name ( name ) - interface name
mtu ( integer ; default: 1500 ) - Maximum Transmission Unit
mac-address ( MAC address ) - MAC address of the card
arp ( disabled | enabled | proxy-arp | reply-only ; default: enabled ) - Address Resolution Protocol
• disabled - the interface will not use ARP protocol
• enabled - the interface will use ARP protocol
• proxy-arp - the interface will be an ARP proxy
• reply-only - the interface will only reply to the requests originated to its own IP addresses, but
neighbor MAC addresses will be gathered from /ip arp statically set table only
mode ( network-termination | line-termination ; default: line-termination ) - interface mode, either
line termination (LT) or network termination (NT)
sdsl-speed ( integer ; default: 2320 ) - SDSL connection speed
sdsl-invert ( yes | no ; default: no ) - whether the clock is phase inverted with respect to the
Transmitted Data interchange circuit. This configuration option is useful when long cable lengths
between the Termination Unit and the DTE are causing data errors
sdsl-swap ( yes | no ; default: no ) - whether or not the Xpeed 300 SDSL Adapter performs bit
swapping. Bit swapping can maximize error performance by attempting to maintain an acceptable
margin for each bin by equalizing the margin across all bins through bit reallocation
bridged-ethernet ( yes | no ; default: yes ) - if the adapter operates in bridged Ethernet mode
dlci ( integer ; default: 16 ) - defines the DLCI to be used for the local interface. The DLCI field
identifies which logical circuit the data travels over
lmi-mode ( off | line-termination | network-termination | network-termination-bidirectional ;
default: off ) - defines how the card will perform LMI protocol negotiation
• off - no LMI will be used
• line-termination - LMI will operate in LT (Line Termination) mode
• network-termination - LMI will operate in NT (Network Termination) mode
• network-termination-bidirectional - LMI will operate in bidirectional NT mode
cr ( 0 | 2 ; default: 0 ) - a special mask value to be used when speaking with certain buggy vendor
equipment. Can be 0 or 2

Frame Relay Configuration Examples
MikroTik Router to MikroTik Router
Consider the following network setup with MikroTik router connected via SDSL line using Xpeed
interface to another MikroTik router with Xpeed 300 SDSL adapter. SDSL line can refer a common
patch cable included with the Xpeed 300 SDSL adapter (such a connection is called Back-to-Back).
Lets name the first router r1 and the second r2.
Router r1 setup
The following setup is identical to one in the first example:
[admin@r1] ip address> add inter=xpeed1 address 1.1.1.1/24
[admin@r1] ip address> pri
Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid, D - dynamic
# ADDRESS NETWORK BROADCAST INTERFACE
0 1.1.1.1/24 1.1.1.0 1.1.1.255 xpeed1
[admin@r1] interface xpeed> print
Flags: X - disabled
0 name="xpeed1" mtu=1500 mac-address=00:05:7A:00:00:08 arp=enabled
mode=network-termination sdsl-speed=2320 sdsl-invert=no sdsl-swap=no
bridged-ethernet=yes dlci=16 lmi-mode=off cr=0
[admin@r1] interface xpeed>
Router r2 setup
First, we need to add a suitable IP address:
[admin@r2] ip address> add inter=xpeed1 address 1.1.1.2/24
[admin@r2] ip address> pri
Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid, D - dynamic
# ADDRESS NETWORK BROADCAST INTERFACE
0 1.1.1.2/24 1.1.1.0 1.1.1.255 xpeed1
Then, some changes in xpeed interface configuration should be done:
[admin@r2] interface xpeed> print
Flags: X - disabled
0 name="xpeed1" mtu=1500 mac-address=00:05:7A:00:00:08 arp=enabled
mode=network-termination sdsl-speed=2320 sdsl-invert=no sdsl-swap=no
bridged-ethernet=yes dlci=16 lmi-mode=off cr=0
[admin@r2] interface xpeed> set 0 mode=line-termination
[admin@r2] interface xpeed>
Now r1 and r2 can ping each other.

MikroTik Router to Cisco Router
Let us consider the following network setup with MikroTik Router with Xpeed interface connected
to a leased line with a CISCO router at the other end.
MikroTik router setup:
[admin@r1] ip address> add inter=xpeed1 address 1.1.1.1/24
[admin@r1] ip address> pri
Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid, D - dynamic
# ADDRESS NETWORK BROADCAST INTERFACE

First of all Xpeed 300 PCI is SDSL modem and use Frame Relay encapsulation and you talk about ADSL and this days ADSL use ATM encapsulation
Second Xpeed company withdrawal its business in 2002.
Back in 2000 when we start to offer DSL in Egypt we use Xpeed 320r, Xpeed 320 Xpeed 300 and it was the worst hardware ever. (no wonder that company don’t exist any more)

So if ROS is support Xpeed 300 (I think ROS ver. 3 doesn't support this card) that doesn't mean ROS support ADSL PCI card

You can check

ROS v3 in Mikrotik RouterOS version 3.X
and i want to know what i need to working with adsl modems cards
there is no way to add drivers to Mikrotik RouterOS so you cant install any device that Mikrotik dosn't support it.
i use mikrotik 2.9.27
This forum is for legal copies of Mikrotik RouterOS, you can’t just use hacked version and ask here for support, buy a license, it will cost you only 45$, nearly 235 LE, it’s cheaper than some ADSL routers
After that all member of this forum and also official Mikrotik support are ready to help you

Ok, I have to get a fax machine at home but dont want to use the handset part of it to answer calls. Can I still use my cordless phone for making and answering calls? I don't want to add another phone-jack if I can help it. My fax machine has a USB connection free. The phone system is a Panasonic 6.0 system. Is there a USB converter of something? Is there a way to connect a fax machine to a cordless phone system?
