Greetings,
I have a small office with three PC’s all connected and sharing a DSL service. Is there a way I could use a DSL modem at home to get access to the DSL connection at the office? I get accustomed to the speed at work and do not wish to pay for another DSL connection at home.

No, the phone line coming into the site has to be provisioned for DSL.
 
Install a terminal server at your work and then run a ts session from home the the server at work. You can then surf the net from the terminal server and have the dsl speed for surfing. That would be the only way you could do it.
 
Dmasch, with that scenario, chiefl would still be limited by the speed between the terminal server (office) and the home machine - even if dialed into directly, that's only about 53Kbps.
