We don't have a smoking gun on the HD part... splitting it out was ONE of
the things we tried... since it is now working well and it IS split out,
I'm not using the HD port anymore (in my case, it's easier not to
anyway). I attribute ours working now mostly to BellSouth moving the
circuit to thicker guage wire and improving the s/n ratio. I'd suggest
getting them to measure your S/N on all your ISDN lines and compare the
working ones to those not working (and compare them to their recommended
threshold - around -30db, I *THINK*.

Haven't seen this. The D's on ours appear once SPIDs are configured into
ports... perhaps someone typo'd ???? Would that do it ??? Anyway, I'd
expect that setting the SPIDs to nothing and re-booting should get them
to disappear.
Later.
