REALLY STUPID QUESTION..........computer related

I have a laptop that I will be using this summer when I travel (When one works for a small company...the office goes on vacation with you!). I may be going to Japan as my father is ill and though it isn't life threatening, may need to go out there.

I have wireless capability so I know that should I be in a location that has wireless access, all I have to do is fire up my internet explorer and it will come on. I just bought a blue cord (it will be delivered by office depot today) that looks like an oversized phone cord for when I don't have wireless. Now...my question is, where do I plug in the side that doesn't go into the computer? I take it here in my house that I can plug it into my line that has the DSL in it and go.

If I am at a hotel or car repair place or Starbucks...am I correct in assuming that they are paying for access and it is there for me to use?

I feel like a total moron as I am much brighter than this post makes me look but since I never needed my other laptop for the internet, I am totally clueless.

Major thunderstorm coming through...gotta turn the computer off!

Have a great day everyone!
