DFAX Over ADSL

On the Sign Up page for the Demon website for DFAX it states you must 
have a SDU account. As I have just converted from SDU to ADSL, can I 
actually get DFAX facility? The wording is not clear on this point and 
perhaps needs to be updated to clarify what SDU actually means.

Obviously the method of connection (56k, ISDN, ADSL) makes no difference 
to the users access to a POP3 account, but the web site wording  -  "You 
must have a Demon Dial-up Account which is paid for by credit card, and 
you are reading this page from that account. If this is the case, please 
fill in your hostname and password in the boxes shown and follow the 
on-line instructions."  -  (Direct quote) states that I MUST have 
SDU....

Confused of Chelmsford...

the system is intended to work with ADSL "hostnames" as well as SDU ones

I agree it's confusing :(

Okay, so I've signed up and I have my FAX number. Next I thought I'd
test it.... :)

 Errr, No Dialler.... :(

Modem now packed in box because ASDL is served by DrayTek Vigor
2600.....

Do I need to unbox my trusty old USR V-Everything or is there an easy
way to do this over ADSL?... :)
