I installed Version DSL in my Mothers apartment, and after a power outage I noticed that although the modem lights indicated that it was connected and working there was no access to the internet. After many hours of futzing around I ended up in the modem's web control panel and noticed that even though the modem was set to auto-connect it did not auto-login. I clicked the login button and bingo! back online. The panel I speak of is where you entered your PPPoE user-name and password.
