A friend of mine has recently purchased a new pc with vista. She has an existing sagem 800 dsl modem from tiscali. The setup requires both phone line and usb to be connected at the same time.

This works fine in xp but in vista.......God Help me.

I have finally installed the thing and the internet connection is fine.

However, it cuts off the phone...just like the old dial up connection.

The internet does not work if I disconnet the phone line from the dsl filter to the ethernet 10/100.

Amazingly tiscali cannot help.

BT have checked the line which is clearly working. The phone works if I un plug the modem.
