[ILUG] Eircon DSL - A word to the wise

[Denis Hennessy]

I ran into this when I was moving from ESAT. There seems to be some kind 
of 'cooling off period' that they worry about. The solution is simply to 
get a phone line at your new office, order DSL on that, and when it's 
working cancel the old service.
