Ubuntu Internet Connection

I am a complete noob to Linux. I recently installed Ubuntu on my laptop. I want to have internet access, but my home (still with my parents) has Bellsouth FastAccess DSL with a LAN set up. To connect, I have to install BellSouth FastAccess software and 2Wire Gateway (which is the broadband server) software, both of which require Windows. Would Wine be the answer? Or dual-booting?
