Ah, yeah, that would be annoying.

I also had two lines. I listed the dialup line as the primary, as unlisted
was no cost for the second line.

I have since met the sysadmin who reset my connection Sunday mornings at
dawn.

Yeah, having to keep calling about a couple bucks here and a couple bucks
there :(.

I didn't have too many problems, but had to have voice mail turned off on
the dial up line a few times.
