How?

I have my one chance this month to test the system on a DSL line tomorrow=
,=20
Wednesday 12 Mar 03 and then of course I will then have to wait until I=20
return home to test the modem or do that before I go.

The reason I ask how is that I have already tried virtually every combina=
tion=20
that I can think of and then had to delete the setup as the system would =
not=20
work on both.
