| Move DSL to different phone number in same house We have several phone numbers coming into the house & want to disconnect all but one number.
The number we want to keep doesn’t have the DSL, so this would mean moving DSL from one number to another number. Verizon says it’s no problem, but I’m concerned that moving the DSL isn’t as simple or easy as they say it is.
I’m thinking that moving DSL would mean potential connection or stability problems.
We can’t afford to lose our internet connection or have connection problems, etc.
I’m guessing that moving DSL to a different number is just something we have to take a chance on.
Does anyone have any experience with this or comments?
Thanks ! | |

| Re: Move DSL to different phone number in same house Tom,
Thanks for the reply.
Yes, new email addresses would be an issue, plus early cancellation charges. I only want one phone number, so Selective Ring isn’t an option either.
The line I want to keep is the only one wired to all the rooms in the house, which is one reason I want to keep it.
I guess I just have to decide if it’s worth taking a chance moving the DSL. | |

| Re: Move DSL to different phone number in same house said by tschmidt  :In that case all you need to do is disconnect inside wiring from "old" line and reconnect it to "new" line. If you have a modern NID, network Interface device, all phone lines terminate there making change easy. /tom Yes. there's a NID. Not sure I'd be able to figure out how to change the wiring in it.
All rooms have Line 1. Back rooms have line 1 only.
Currently DSL is on Line 2.
I'm sure this isn't the correct technical description, but -
Two rooms have line 1 and line 2, but only one cable, with red & green wires for line 1 and black & yellow wires for line 2.
I thought it would be easier to move the DSL to line 1, rather than try to rewire anything. But that's also taking a chance that it won't get screwed up or have connection problems once DSL is on Line 1. | |

I decided to keep line 1 and move everything over. DSL won’t get moved until next week.
I'm hoping DSL doesn't get messed up.
I’ll post back with the results when it’s over. | |

Bedminster, NJ | Maybe keep the line with DSL and transfer the phone number from the other line? | |

Canada | When you have your new account all set up, create an email user name. Once this is done, give a call into tech support and ask them to do a repoint for you. They can then move your old username over to your new account for you. | |
