Sorry to disappoint you, but the company that provides Ameritech DSL
(Ameritech Advanced Data Services) is not directly  connected to
Ameritech Network Services (The peole who own the wires, switches,
Central Offices, etc.).  AADS is an arms length "sister company".
Central office techs and field techs deal with them just like they were
MCI or Nortpoint or any other phone company.  AADS has there own techs
and offices not located in the Central Offices and Network employees
are required by law to treat them just like they do other phone
companies.

And yes they are treated just like any other phone company.
