You can download this ISO image and burn a CD, then boot the target computer with that CD and compete the installation via an internet connection. Or you can order full Debian CDs here.

You might also want to think about Ubuntu which is Debian based.

I have forgot something importante, I have a DVD of Ubuntu so I can install Ubuntu in my computer without problem, and I enjoy working with this O.S. but the big problem for me, with Ubuntu is that, I can not connect to internet, with a modem ethernet, speedtouch 512 k.
So I ask a question: what is the configuration to do so that I can connect to internet with my modem ethernet, speedtouch 512 k.
Thank you in advence. :)

That's got nothing to do with "Ubuntu" itself. Debian may have the same issue. You simply don't have the correct modules installed or kernel configuration.

Type:

lspci

Then send is the output along with any errors you get when you try to connect.

EDIT | You know, if it's an ethernet cable that connects to your PC I'd be surpised if opening a command line and typing:

dhclient eth0

doesn't work. Type "ifconfig eth0 up"... do you get any errors that eth0 does not exist?
