You don't do it. Your ISP picks an IP-address, from their "pool" of IP-addresses, and they configure their servers to send all IP-packets addressed to "you" over "your" DSL modem, to your computer.
Then, you configure your computer (not your modem!!!) with that IP-address, so that it will "mark", with the IP-address, each outgoing IP-packet that it will send through the modem, so that servers on the Internet can determine "your" IP-address, so that the server can send packets back to "your" computer, via your ISP.
