                                More DSL woes

The IDSL unit finally arrived! Giddy with excitement, I rip open the package
and start hooking it up. I tell Rob [1] (my roommate) to call up Velotel [2]
to get the IP addresses assigned for me (they didn't call me back. [3] No big
deal).

The IDSL unit isn't syncing up. I still don't have my 5 IP addresses. I think
I'm slowly sinking into DSL horror territory. I call up Velotel and report
the problem. They call North Point [4] (who is providing the actual circuit).
North Point is calling Bell South.

And the circuit still isn't syncing up.
