Maybe, your dial-up connection to your job is using TCP/IP in someway that
is causing you grief with your DSL connection, even though it's dial-up.
After all, you are connecting to your job and not to an ISP and that is a
different situation than switching connections with the machine from dial-
up ISP to DSL ISP.

Have you talked with the Tech Support of the dial-up software about your
problems or even Tech Support at your job? Maybe that's where you should
start. To have a simple dial-up connection and switch between dial-up and
simple BB/DSL connections should not be an issue.
