I don't think that particular product would work in this scenario.  This
type of converter is used when you have a serial WAN link that you want
to bridge ethernet traffic over, making it transparent to your router. 
Each end of the WAN link would have one of these and you would connect
it to the ethernet port on your router.

We have just recently used such a device successfully to bridge traffic
from Denver to Atlanta over another companies BAP  (Big A** Pipe)  <g>. 
It works great and is completely transparent.

There is no way to connect an ethernet interface to a serial
interface,
they are entirely different technologies.  Your only option would be
to
add another router to do the media conversion.

Or, you could buy a hub/switch and use that to connect the dsl router,
the lan, and your 2501.  However, that's not the greatest solution and
it doesn't really accomplish your goal.

HTH,
John

I want to be able to plug my DSL modem into the serial port on my
2501,
leaving the ethernet port available for my lan.  Does anyone know of a
converter/transiever that will allow me to do this?
Thanks in advance.

Neil
