Hi lenihem,
I'm a part of Dell Social Media Team. If you are able to find a modem port on the computer(refer to the image to know how the port looks like), you can connect your phone line to the same. If you are unable to find one, you may need an external modem connector like this: http://dell.to/1eMSe7h to connect phone line.
