The Phone Line (Dum dum duuuuummm)

[Jimbo]

Okay, will double check tonight when I get home....but the tech tried it first & agreed it didn't work & since it seems like these things are so difficult to get a hold of I told him it was okay & he left.

Tech 007 is correct,
I run across this every so often when people move thier computers or get new ones.
Plugging your phone line into the ethernet connection places a direct short on your line and you will definatly lose dial tone.
