>   Even better: buy a Cisco 678 from me!
Hey I'd love to save $100! But of course this all hinges on Qwest 
making my line work...

I recently moved (not too far) and took my old number with me 
when I moved. Well, when we called up Qwest, the "tech" told us 
that we'd have to switch phone numbers (to a different prefix) so 
that everything was cool at the CO, but then DSL would certainly 
work. Of course we did switch numbers, but also of course, DSL 
doesn't work. Insertion loss of 52.3 according to visi.com (like you'd 
ever get a real number out of Qwest). The weird thing is that a 
friend a block away has no problems with his DSL at all.

Anyway, I'm calling them to yell today (after 3 other roommates 
tried and failed) and maybe I'll have to use the old PUC trick.
