yes, yahoo and verizon!! has dry lines... You need a land line phone for the modem to connect to. Therefore, the request you made is impossible to accomodate. Yes, but normally you will pay more for just the DSL then the package of phone line/DSL.
AT%26T, Verizon and Covad are just a few that I know for sure DSL signal resides as a separate and distinct frequency from a voice frequency. For assymetric DSL, you must have a voice line in place. They can be put in place at the same time. However, no voice line means no ability to provide assymentric DSL. yes what you seek is called "dry" or "naked" DSL.. it is not available in all areas.. the central office has to support this... but Verizon, or Covad should be able to help you out...
honestly cable modem is MUCH faster then DSL... DSL in my opinion sucks.. (and I am a phone tech, one of the services my company re-sells is DSL) As a technical matter, you can get a DSL line without having regular phone service. A regular phone line in your home is called POTS - plain old telephone service - which traditionally meant a line with a dialtone. You want a "non-POTS DSL line" - i.e., a phone line w/o a dialtone. The person who says you need a phone line to get ADSL is wrong. I%26#39;ve had non-POTS ADSL for %26gt;6 years. ADSL is just one "flavor" of DSL and it is not dependent on a dialtone.
Now that you know this is possible, you have to determine if it is available where you live. For commercial and regulatory reasons, this varies from market to market.
