the welcome letter your DSL ISP sent you when you signed up for  
your service.  
Your telephone number or DSL account number. If you do not  
have voice service, you can use your DSL account number in  
place of a phone number.  
If you do not know or cannot locate your user name and password,  
call your DSL Internet service provider.  
Be specific when speaking with your DSL Internet service provider.  
For example, you could say:  
I need my DSL service user name and password. Can you help me?

services, tell them you need only your DSL user name and password;  
you do not need support.
