I don't think you can use the old hardware anymore.

Even in CL's message, he said when he came home the old router was flashing
the red lights and had to hook up the oversized new one.

I think the protocol is the same (adsl2+) but the carrier it's sitting on
is all different (bonded pair). Something like that.

The old one sent the username/password, like you got told, the new ones use
the mac address or some other identifier.

I tried that here, after the problems were solved with the line and I needed
to put the router in it's final resting place, for yucks I plugged the new
line into the old 2wire, and nada. It just sat there trying to sync up and
never could.

It's sort of like your old analog tv, it goes thru the motion of picking up
OTA channels, but they aren't there anymore, so it doesn't work.
