why are you hooking a 675 into a modem on your computer ? it should plug
into eather a NIC or a switch/hub. Also why do you have 2 lines ?
Normaly dsl is done over the same line as pots audio through the use of
microfilters. Also if you have a 675 that IS working, why would you need
a internal DSL modem. ?? could you clarify?
