You will need a modem, and set it to bridge mode ideally preferably. http://ca.dlink.com/products/connect/adsl2-ethernet-modem-2/

Thx for the answer, one more question. Does the modem you provided support t-mobile?

Sorry for my noob questions, but it has wifi and ethernet, right? And also i can connect the router to it for better speeds?

The modem does not have wifi, but since you are looking to buy a router too, then you can connect the two for better performance.
