Oh! The problem was not with the dsl - my daughter was visiting and she was
able to connect with no problem-using her Mac. But AT&T had me jumping through
hoops this time and wanted the high price of tech services just to reconnect my
freebox(vector linux pc). I went with AT&T because they were
reasonable/affordable for me. All I wanted was to be reconnected. I could not
and do not understand why the repair of the wire from the house to the pole
would cause the internet not to work with my freebox.

No dsl can only travel so many feet along the copper wire and it must be in
Good
shape, if not then you will have intermitent service or none at all. You pc is
most likely just fine.
