It looks like the cord used to plug into the phone from the phone jack only a little bigger, but it does have that thing you push in remove the plug and hear a click when you connect it.

USB stands for Universal Serial Bus... If you meant to ask if you can use your USB port to somehow connect to the internet, then yes.
