If you modify your /etc/sudoers file to username ALL = NOPASSWD: ALL
it will not ask for password.

Bleh. This is perfectly safe to set if you use strong passwords (and/or restrict ssh access to key based access only), and you are the only user on your system.
I wouldn't recommend this on laptops, or any system to which multiple people have access. On a regular desktop, the benefits outweigh the risks (anyone who has access to your personal desktop already has the ability to do more damage than sudo will give anyway).

OP didn't indicate whether she wanted this for a true multiuser system, and people running adsl-start/stop are probably home users.
