Hi Eric/All,

Thanks for the various feedback. Actually the line is working now, although=
 Verizon told me they did not change anything. They even told me the problem=
 is: the line is not ISDN but POTS ....
Anyway it's working and it reminds me the joke below
Have a nice WE
Andr=E9

Theory: Nothing is working but everybody knows why
Practice: Everything is working but nobody knows why
Here we combine both: Nothing is working and nobody knows why
