| 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? | |
