Dimmer switches tend to be electrically noisy.
(We engineers would say it generates high order harmonics.) :-)
If the house telephone wiring runs parallel to an AC power cable
for any appreciable distance, it can pick up electrical interference
sufficiently strong to bother a DSL modem.
The solution is to install a "home run", meaning you split off the
DSL signal at the point where the telco's wiring enters your residence.
