For the short time I had both DSL and Dialup, IIRC, I had to
completely disconnect DSL. Unplug the cable from the internal NIC,
unplug the digital line from the DSL 'modem'. Then use an analog
phone filter to hook the digital phone line to the dialup modem (an
external serial 56K). IOW, neither dialup or DSL would work if the
other was left hooked up at all.
