&gt;password before pressing the Connect button.  Immediately it pulled down
&gt;an IP and associated info.  Since I wanted to attach the DSL line to my
&gt;home network, via a switch port on my Linksys AP, I turned off the DHCP
&gt;server on the Westell and changed it's internal static IP to
&gt;192.168.3.254.
&gt;
&gt;Why is that process so painful for all those people who call Bellsouth
&gt;names?

    I been running bellsouth dsl for about 2 years now at 1st it took 
about 2 months everything started to work. But when stuff started its 
been good (ive been on better but thats when i lived in Fl.) just 
recently i upgraded my service to top res grade it only took 3 days 
after ordering over the net and about a week before it was a stable 
connection. i think i rather be on speekeasy but my local dslam won't go 
any faster (i ask a repair guy that was working on it) 
    but to your question i think its more about the service after that 
process.
