when i switched to vonage i had my internet cut off by accident. I did not know that the dsl had to be with the phone company, my fault. Now i have my old number switched to vonage. I have my landline turned back on and it has a new number. How do i hook up vonage to my dsl and have only my vonage number ring. I need help on the hookup process.

Plug the DSL line into your DSL modem, but don't plug any phone into that line. Plug your Vonage box into the ethernet port on the modem, and plug your phone into the Vonage box phone port. The DSL line won't ring because there won't be any phone plugged into it.
