My telephone service is out. My multimeter indicates that I am getting

Are there any other relatively simple things that I can check? What
would should I do next?


Sounds like a wiring corrosion or equipment problem. Nothing on your end
though, you'll have to wait until the repair tech gets there. The DSL
signal is voltage-independent and so it is not affected (enough to shut it
down). I know is sucks to sit and wait but you need to let the PhoneCo
handle that.

Good luck!
