do the lights light up flash etc on the modem in the trailer, like
they do in the building?

Very good question. He should have told us without your asking.

I once knew what each light meant. I've forgotten but other people
know.

Mike, you also didn't answer the question Hallerb asked first. Can
you connect a phone to that pair and get a dial tone. Can you do this
in the main office and not in the trailer? Or do you have DSL
without dialtone?.

I thought I did answer that, see 4th post down. This is a
straightfoward dedicated DSL, no dial tone.

Update: Well I tried turning off all breakers in the trailer, I also
tried reversing the plug. No help.
I asked one of the MRI physicists if anything might intefere with the
DSL in the 1400 KHz range. He said no.
I still had an old DSL modem that was previously thought to be
defective by the contractor. I plugged it in and it worked. Now
everything is fine.
The only explanation is that these 2 modems are made by different
manufacturers and there are probably different tolerance levels
between the 2 involving interference.
Thanks for everyones help.
