 Not a big deal. You can buy a phone jack from any hardware store and
wire it up, if there isn't one back there. Just hook the red wire to the
red screw, the green to the green, etc.

 If it's just raw, unshielded copper wire, it probably won't be good for
sending a DSL signal. In that case, you'll probably need to run new wire
to where the phone line comes into your house. If you do some rewiring,
you can put a DSL filter in at that point...
