If you have a Windows PC with an Ethernet port, insert the USB modem 
into the Windows PC, connect to the Internet, share the Internet 
connection to the Ethernet port, and connect the Ethernet port of the 
Windows computer to the Ethernet port of the Linux computer.


Or, use the Debian i386 machine instead of a Windows PC.


Or, get Internet service that includes a modem/ gateway with an Ethernet 
port.  This is probably the best answer in the long run.
